1983 | Radio On Until Morning - Jack Monroe | the dial never slept. | After Glow FM

After the party. After the river road. After the dashboard clock said nobody was home. “Radio On Until Morning” is a 1984-inspired synth-pop single from Jack Monroe, built around a coat that still holds her perfume, a motel sign missing half its letters, and a diner that knows their fake last names. It's about keeping the volume up so the quiet doesn't show. Don't make a promise the morning can't keep. Stay in the glow while the town is asleep. Hold the hour. Don't ask it to last. If the song has to end, let it fade, not crash. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ RADIO ON UNTIL MORNING The dashboard clock says nobody's home Your perfume's still living in the coat I wore We left the party like it owed us nothing Then we wanted more Streetlights count us down the river road I keep the volume up So the quiet don't show Don't make a promise The morning can't keep Just stay in the glow While the town is asleep Leave the radio on until morning Let the night do the talking for once I can hold this hour Without asking it to last Leave the radio on until morning If the song has to end Let it fade, not crash There's a motel sign missing half its letters There's a diner that knows our fake last names We laugh like we invented getting lost Then we play it safe I watch you sleep against the passenger glass I don't wake you I let the chorus pass Don't make a promise The morning can't keep Just stay in the glow While the town is asleep Leave the radio on until morning Let the night do the talking for once I can hold this hour Without asking it to last Leave the radio on until morning If the song has to end Let it fade, not crash I'm not asking the sunrise To take your side I'm not dressing this up Like a wedding ride I just want the static And your hand on the seat One more cheap miracle On a two-lane street Leave the radio on until morning Let the night do the talking for once I can hold this hour Without asking it to last Leave the radio on until morning Leave the radio on If the song has to end Let it fade, not crash ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ I wrote this song.
