Lyrics
Sometimes the sound of a song can deliver,
the perfect image of a place and time,
heading out for a night to remember,
we didn’t know what we would find,
fast cars and cigarettes were over rated,
had all the time but not a dime
didn’t know where we were going
but we sure enjoyed the ride
Turned up the radio until we could feel it,
the search began for our favorite song,
moving faster than the speed of life,
we sang the same song all night long,
it was a song of innocence, somehow it faded,
we reveled in our ignorance, but those days are gone
Chorus: Take me back, I want to hear that song on the radio,
take me back, it was a perfect time and I didn’t even know
Bridge: That feeling never went away
Those memories will never fade
I still can hear the radio
Take me back
