Oh Yeah [Roxy Music]
Bryan Ferry · Slave To Love: Best Of The Ballads [2000]
Overtook me by surprise
Where was I
How was I to know?
How we can drive to a movie show
When the music is here in my car?
Chorus:
There's a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They're playing - oh yeah - on the radio
And so it came to be our song
And so on through all summer long
Day and night
Drifting into love
Driving you home from a movie show
So in tune to the sounds in my car
Chorus
It's some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our seperate lives
But where am I
Where can I go?
Driving alone to a movie show
So I turn to the sounds in my car
Modified Chorus:
There's a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
There's a band playing on the radio
And it's drowning the sound of my tears
They're playing - oh yeah - on the radio
