This song is about someone being in love with a singer he hears on the radio. He loves the way she sounds and wants to marry her.
The music video shows a 50s style drive-in and billboard, which is fitting because the song has a distinct 50s feel.
Of course you can easily hear that I’m inspired by...
[Verse 1]
Oh radio, play me that sweet heavenly song
Well, it's Saturday night and we all get into town
[Verse 2]
Broken by heartache but driven by her sound
Well, a spell from the speakers was tearing my soul apart
Oh, radio man, would you please play that song?
One day I know that I'll marry that girl
[Chorus]
Come home, baby I know it
Please dial me up
Alone I roam
[Verse 3]
Cause the drive-in is closing, the movie's out of work
But the music is playing in my old Bett Betty Ford
Oh, radio man, would you please play that song?
One day I know that I'll marry that girl
[Chorus]
Come home, baby I know it
Please dial me up
Alone I roam
[Verse 4]
Standing in the rain with one coin for a phone booth call
Oh Madeline
The station told me that they didn't even know your name
For Helvede
[Verse 5]
Strolling to another city just to catch a song
Oh Madeline
The frequency better, but I'm freezing on a parking lot
It never ends
[Verse 2]
Broken by heartache but driven by her sound
Well, a spell from the speakers was tearing my soul apart
Oh, radio man, would you please play that song?
One day I know that I'll marry that girl
[Chorus]
Come home, baby I know it
Please dial me up
Alone I roam
[Verse 5]
Strolling to another city just to catch a song
Oh Madeline
The frequency better, but I'm freezing on a parking lot
It never ends
