I’d sit alone and watch your light My only friend through teenage nights And everything I had to know I heard it on my radio You gave them all those old-time stars Through wars of worlds, invaded by Mars You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry You made us feel like we could fly So don’t become some background noise A backdrop for the girls and boys Who just don’t know, or just don’t care And just complain when you’re not there ---
