Turn up the radio

When you know they can do better

Just turn up the radio          
Another love song’s playing          
Sing louder than we can speak          
And we’ll have to sing along          
To the tune that makes you happy          
So you’ll keep us in the band          

You could do better
We know it and we tell you
The past as our witness
Stare into your eyes
And watch the fears and the tears
At the thought of sleeping alone

Beautiful, watchful angel
For once just let us guide you
You don’t always know better
Older and wiser perhaps
But you’re still a fool for love
Sweet dreams and bedtime stories

You could do better
We know it and we tell you
The past as our witness
Stare into your eyes
And watch the fears and the tears
At the thought of sleeping alone

You see soft words that drip green
Falling from two lonely hearts
To bring you back down to them
We see the old photographs
And older obligations
To keep that smile on your face

You could do better
We know it and we tell you
The past as our witness
Stare into your eyes
And watch the fears and the tears
At the thought of sleeping alone
