radio operator

radio operator

in a tiny foreign room

we can hear you now and later

calling out and coming through

radio operator

you're a voice so far from home

with a signal like a heartbeat

not afraid but so alone

where are the messages for me

the secret codes for parts unknown

i'll ride the signal to the world

and to the girl in san antone

radio operator

do you ever think of me

'cause i'm a gleam on some horizon

just too far away to see

radio operator

there are still messages to send

from the future

from the present

and it never has to end

where are the messages for me

the secret codes for parts unknown

i'll ride the signal to the world

and to the girl in san antone

radio operator

i am calling like a friend

from my future

from your memory

and it never has to end

this message will not end
