On Short Wave

[Intro]

"On Short Wave"

[Verse 1]

I often said my problems with too much to say

Good things flow

The way to cover topics God's forgot about

High beams low

[Refrain]

On short wave, on short wave

The only real memory I'll ever have

[Verse 2]

In unrealistic boyhoods, we made no mistakes

In what we chose

Through mosses green on slippery black rocks we would break

Far too close

[Refrain]

To short wave, to short wave

[Bridge]

I have survived the acid test to reach you

I'm never sightless to the outstretch of your arms

Wearing its disguise in exiting the idle flight controlling

All-encompassing cajoling

Where our wings fold over

You have your rainbow waiting

[Refrain]

On short wave, on short wave

The only real memory I'll ever have
