GOLDEN EARRING

- Radar Love Lyrics

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head, that drives my heel
It's my baby callin', says, "I need you here"
Ans it's half past four, and I'm shifting gear

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin' in from above
Don't need no phone at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a wave in the air, radar love

The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's coming on strong
The road's got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, comin' in from above
Don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a line in the sky, radar love

No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool, now gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow

And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's coming on strong
And the newsman sang his same song
One more radar lover gone

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, comin' in from above
We don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a line in the sky
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a thing that's called radar love

This song described the CB radio craze of the 70s. A long haul trucker has CB women all along his route. When he gets lonley, he calls for the nearest one. Brenda Lee was the one in range on his route. Once out of range, he is on to the next. Hense the lyrics, One more radar lover gone.

This song is about the Vietnam War. More specifically, it is about a man on patrol and the 'girl' in this song is the helicopter coming in to pick him up.

Two people who know each other so well that its not really as intriguing anymore. Therefore the road seems so well known it can be done in a trance. It continues until the radar lover disappears
