Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
It's late at night, and I'm feeling down There are couples standing on the street Sharing summer kisses and city sounds So I step inside, for a glass of wine. With a full glass and an empty heart, I search for something to occupy my mind But you are in my head, swimming forever in my head, Tangled in my dreams, swimming forever So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) Remember where we used to go Now its morning light, and it's cold outside, Caught up in a distant dream I try And think that you are by my side So I leave my bed, and I try to dress, Wondering why my mind plays tricks And fools me into thinking you are there But you're just in my head, Swimming forever in my head, Not lying in my bed, just swimming forever So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) Remember where we used to go I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) Remember how we used to go You are in my head, swimming forever in my head Tangled in my dreams, swimming forever (swimming forever) Swimming forever... So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) So I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) Remember where we used to go I listen to the radio (listen to the radio) All the songs we used to know (listen to the radio) I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
