[Verse 1]
Sandpaper and cigarettes
Squeaks and buzzes 'cross the frets
For that I harbor no regrets, no regrets
Curtains drawn with patterned lace
Moonlight cool across your face
A beautiful and simple grace, simple grace
[Chorus]
How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio
[Verse 2]
Easy in your old blue jeans
Unselfconscious, out of key
A sweet rendition just for me, just for me
Syncopations on the fly
Jumbled lyrics made me cry
No matter how the years go by, years go by
[Chorus]
How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio
[Bridge]
No recordings or replays
Some things are the best that way
Only they will never fade
[Chorus]
How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio
Nothing like the radio
