Took a walk in the night, 'cause all day long I've had a radio,
The keys are on the table, so if you want to leave just say so,
Got to keep the lights off, got to keep me in the dark with my eyes closed,
Maybe a dream can set me free,
Spotlight on the highway and bad news on the radio.

I remember when I met you, your angels eyes where cutting in my soul,
You knew me in an instant, saw my devil heart...still you wouldn't let go,
You tried to make it heaven, but you followed me to hell,
Now listen close, hear the helicopter fly,
Spotlight on the highway and bad news on the radio.

Bad news on the radio.

I know you tried to warn me, take what we have left and hit the door,
Homeboy tried to burn me, I had to give him what he had asked for,
Now I watch you sleeping,
Don't wake up and say goodbye, 'cause there's no more,
As the sirens arrive, spotlight on a driveway, bad news on the radio.

Bad news on the radio,
Bad news on the radio,
Bad news on the radio.

I don't know the reason...reason for my trouble,
I don't know the reason for my trouble.

Bad news on the radio.

I know you tried to warn me.
