Beau wants to put you on the air
If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away
Maybe I'm scared I'll lose my power to amuse
It's all the same story just the voices that change on
And through the tinny speakers of an ancient radio
Samantha laughs at the two of us here
Maybe I'm afraid of where you want to go
Meanwhile back on the love line, he says
Beau's all night radio love line
Is that Samantha cryin' or just somebody on?
The all night love line begins another show
And I'll wake up alone in a bed full of blues", just listening to
Beau wants to put you on the air
And the callers call in but the thing that's so strange
And she says, "Don't get me wrong about you and me
And she asks me if she can paint mine too, and I say
But he can't figure out how to ask for a raise
The shadows from the headlights of a passing car
The show for hearts in despair
The show for hearts in despair
"You're on the air, caller number nine"
And Beau's really thinkin', this job hardly pays
Beau's all night radio love line
The show for hearts in despair
Beau wants to put you on the air
"Samantha, anything for you"
If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away
And says, "I got some miles on me, and you're such a kid, dear
If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away
Turn Samantha's smile into film noir
I just can't figure out what we're supposed to be
Beau's all night radio love line
To you I'm just a ride in an old Cadillac
If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away
But I keep on prayin' that you'll keep coming back"
Maybe I love you, I don't know
