Honey in the Static

Old radio on the windowsill
Found your station and it's playing still
Through the hiss I hear a melody
Like you're singing it from far to me
I don't need it crystal clear
Just a little bit of you in here
Turn the dial a hair to the right
Sweet and crackling through the night

Some love comes clean, some love comes rough
Mine comes in waves and that's enough

You're the honey in the static
Golden in the noise
Every crackle feels like magic
When it carries your voice
You're the honey in the static
Slow and sweet and low
I don't need it to be perfect
I just need to know you're close

Mama said a love that's loud won't last
Find the quiet one and hold it fast
You don't shout it, you don't make a scene
You just hum it soft between the seams
Bills are piling, roof is leaking too
Still I'm dancing in the kitchen with you
Put the needle down on side B
That's the one you wrote for me

Some love comes clean, some love comes rough
Mine comes in waves and that's enough

You're the honey in the static
Golden in the noise
Every crackle feels like magic
When it carries your voice
You're the honey in the static
Slow and sweet and low
I don't need it to be perfect
I just need to know you're close

Mm, keep it on
Don't you ever turn it off
Keep it on, keep it on

You're the honey in the static
Golden in the noise
Every crackle feels like magic
When it carries your voice
You're the honey in the static
Slow and sweet and low
I don't need it to be perfect
I just need to know you're close
