Lyrics
There's a desert moon and a sky of diamonds
Reachin' as far as the eye can see
It's after midnight and I'm miles from nowhere
Let it all shine down on me
Found a late-night station way down the dial
Playin' old-time country and R&B
With a real strong signal - not much talkin'
Let it all shine down on me
CH- Engine's purrin' and memories stirrin'
With every song from A to Z
Hands on the wheel - something so real
Let it all shine down on me
I'm chasin' headlights - travelin' solo
While the radio keeps me company
There's time for thinkin' - I ain't complainin'
Let it all shine down on me
