Beau's All Night Radio Love Line Lyrics - Singles - Joshua Kadison

Tangled in the sheets of a motel bed 

Samantha paints her toenails cherry red 

And she asks me if she can paint mine too, and I say 

"Samantha, anything for you" 

And through the tinny speakers of an ancient radio 

The all night love line begins another show 

And the callers call in but the thing that's so strange 

It's all the same story just the voices that change on 

Beau's all night radio love line 

The show for hearts in despair 

If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away 

Beau wants to put you on the air 

The shadows from the headlights of a passing car 

Turn Samantha's smile into film noir 

And she says, "Don't get me wrong about you and me 

I just can't figure out what we're supposed to be 

Maybe I love you, I don't know 

Maybe I'm afraid of where you want to go 

Maybe I'm scared I'll lose my power to amuse 

And I'll wake up alone in a bed full of blues", just listening to 

Beau's all night radio love line 

The show for hearts in despair 

If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away 

Beau wants to put you on the air 

And Beau's really thinkin', this job hardly pays 

But he can't figure out how to ask for a raise 

Meanwhile back on the love line, he says 

"You're on the air, caller number nine" 

Samantha laughs at the two of us here 

And says, "I got some miles on me, and you're such a kid, dear 

To you I'm just a ride in an old Cadillac 

But I keep on prayin' that you'll keep coming back" 

Is that Samantha cryin' or just somebody on? 

Beau's all night radio love line 

The show for hearts in despair 

If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away 

Beau wants to put you on the air 

If you got somethin' to say to a love that got away 

Beau wants to put you on the air
