The Radio Remembers Your Name

Drop

The room is ready love

The room is ready love

Verse 1

A dial turns somewhere out past the canyon

Two voices disagree about the weather

One hums low the other one is higher

A tiny reed answers from the corner

Dust on the dashboard almost dust on the tongue

Static keeps the secret of the singer

Every broken word gets a second life

Every second life gets a shorter echo

Chorus

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Fragments fall and land in a different order

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Warm and ordinary like a station waiting

(The room is ready love)

(The room is ready love)

Verse 2

A rounded kick walks slow beneath the talking

Rim taps twice then slips behind the measure

Three notes on a dry guitar keep circling

Then vanish when the sentence tries to finish

Somebody almost says the whole thing plainly

Somebody cuts the tape before the end

The invitation circles back regardless

Patient as a listener who never left

Chorus

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Fragments fall and land in a different order

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Warm and ordinary like a station waiting

(The room is ready love)

(The room is ready love)

Bridge

Narrow the image

Narrow the room

Let the reed get smaller

Let the low note bloom

Somebody almost said it

Somebody almost said it

Somebody almost said the whole thing

Chorus

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Fragments fall and land in a different order

The radio remembers your name

Remembers your name

Warm and ordinary like a station waiting

(The room is ready love)

(The room is ready love)

Drop

The room is ready love

The room is ready love
