Ballboy - The Guide to the Short Wave Radio lyrics

I could talk to you for hours At any time of day Yet the talking never makes This cruel ache go away It's the years that hold us back And the miles I have to go Didn't look so far On the guide to the short wave radio So kiss me in the night Dismantle my whole life Trade private kisses in a public place With a secret smile upon our face Come kiss me in the night Take tender liberties I love you for the flaws And the inconsistencies And someone else will come To make you cry and laugh The world will stumble on With me and my wounded heart I miss you when I sleep I miss you when I sing A fool it was who said That true love conquers everything So kiss me in the night One kiss for my whole life Unfurl your fingers from the sheets I'll stroke your hair to help you sleep And a lost and broken voice Will crackle through the night Bring comfort on the waves To the pirates and the stowaways The years that hold us back The miles we'll never know They didn't look so far On the guide to the short wave radio It didn't look so far It didn't look so far It didn't look so far my love On the guide to the short wave radio love
