Bon Jovi – The Radio Saved My Life Tonight



This song should’ve made the album instead of becoming an unwanted demo. There’s so much edginess in the tune, I’m surprised that Bon Jovi dropped it off their 1992 Keep The Faith album. Nevertheless, they released it in the 4-CD album a few years ago, aptly titled, “100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can’t Be Wrong”. Rock on!

Bon Jovi - The Radio Saved My Life Tonight

Bon Jovi – The Radio Saved My Life Tonight

I got something on my mind, I’m just a little bit depressed
I try to blame it on the rain but it was in my heart, I guess
I’m feeling like a stranger when I drove through my hometown
Past the sign that reads ‘The Boyhood Home of a Place That’s Long Gone Now’
I realized ain’t nothing what it used to be
Until I heard a song that takes me to my memories

Radio saved my life tonight
An old song that that DJ played made me feel alright
I made it home by my dashboard light
The radio saved my life tonight

Just this side of morning, just this side of dawn
I walked so soft into my bedroom, saw my wife sleeping alone
She whispered, “Baby, are you OK? Have you been gone for long?”
I just kicked off my jeans and I held her close, I held her all night long
I tried to sleep but in my mind I heard that song
Like a friend in need the melody keeps me hanging on
