Radio
Hot Chelle Rae Lyrics

If you miss me, like I miss you
Expressing the strong emotion of missing someone and how it feels to crave their presence

I stayed up till 5, last night
Staying up late to catch up with a loved one and their activities

Just to say I missed ya
Taking the initiative to express missing their partner despite the distance between them

Thank God for free, wifi
Being thankful for the technology that enables them to keep in touch despite the physical distance

And the key to the mini bar
Enjoying the luxuries of hotel life while missing their partner

We fell asleep, on Skype
Falling asleep while still connected with their partner via technology

I almost missed my flight
Being so engrossed in keeping in touch with their partner that they almost missed an important appointment

You know that, I need ya, I'm out the door
The feeling of being incomplete and longing for their partner's presence despite the physical distance

Hasta la vista
Saying goodbye with the hope of seeing their partner again soon

No matter where I'm at, no matter where I go
The assurance that their love will follow their partner everywhere they go

I'll be singing for you on the radio
Expressing how their love can be felt even through the airwaves

Like oh, oh, oh, radio, oh, oh
The catchy chorus tune that highlights the power of music in bringing people together

Well you could be in Nashville, and I could be in France
Emphasizing that physical distance ain't nothing but a number compared to the power of love

And here's a little something just to make you dance
Using music as a form of connection to have their partner dancing to the same tune regardless of their location

Turn me up all, the way
Asking their partner to increase the volume and immerse themselves in the song and feelings expressed

Pretend I'm right beside you
The imaginative aspect of being lost in the song and feeling like they're right beside their partner

Like we're on holiday
The fantasy of being together in a romantic holiday setting

And pounding to Buck Truck
The enjoyment and satisfaction derived from the music and the irresistible urge to dance and have a great time

Yeah I've been everywhere
Highlighting the many places they've been to since their partner's absence

I've turned the Mona Lisa
Conveying the sense of seeking adventure and seizing the moment as they explore the world without their partner

And nothing, I'm seeing
Despite the many things they've seen and done, there's still a gaping void that can only be filled by their partner's presence

Compares to you
Expressing how unique and special their partner is, and how they can never be replaced

'Cause nobody does it, the way you do
The emphasis of how special and irreplaceable their partner is compared to anyone else

Through the airwaves, I'ma kiss you
Using technology to send a 'virtual kiss' and express their love from a distance

Comin' for ya, through the speakers
The sense of how their love is being transmitted through the radio waves and into their partner's ears

Right there on the radio
Highlighting how their love is being expressed and conveyed through the radio, regardless of their physical distance

Even when we feel the static
Expressing how sometimes the technology might not be perfect but that doesn't mean they can't continue to express their love

Know our love is automatic
Assuring that their love is automatic, no matter the challenges they face

Hey turn me up, ah ah, can you hear me
Asking their partner to increase the volume and hear them loud and clear

Singing to you clearly, even when you ain't near me
Expressing how their love can be felt even apart from their physical presence

Make love through the airways
The power of technology to connect them and express their love, despite the distance

I hope this song's in your head like hairspray
The desire for their partner to remember the song and how it made them feel, as a symbol of their love

I hear your friends say I change so they'd hear say
Ever since they met their partner, some people have criticized them, but it doesn't matter since their love is true

They only say that when they're drunk
The realization that people speak their minds and express their true opinions only when they're under the influence

So they beer say, anyway
In any case, their opinions don't matter, since their love is true

I wrote you this little song because I wish you were with me
Expressing the desire for their partner's presence and how much they miss them, leading them to write the song

I'm callin' up the station, requesting it in your city, girl
Going the extra mile to ensure their partner hears the song, by requesting it from a radio station in their partner's city

Let's go, oh, oh, radio, oh, oh
The celebratory and encouraging chorus that drives the message of the song home

If you miss me, like I miss you
Reminder of the deep, emotional connection and the strength of feeling that bonds them
