Tuning the radio station to station in search of a song she remembers
She settles at last on a blast from the past, dedicated to Johnny from Linda
And time keeps rolling onward toward a brand new day
While up in Wendy's room it moves the other way
Back when livin' was easy and love was a phone call away

Another golden oldie night for Wendy
She's listening to the radio
She dreams her way back to the boy who loved her
So long ago

Only the glow from the dial of the radio shines in the room where she's laying
She closes her eyes as she peacefully flies far away where the music is playing
And then she sees the boy and he holds her tenderly
They kiss and once again sweet Wendy is sixteen
And she doesn't really care at all what tomorrow will bring

Another golden oldie night for Wendy
She's listening to the radio
She dreams her way back to the boy who loved her
So long ago
Another golden oldie night

Now she's driving with the boy down the open road with the top down back in '64
She says, "I must have dozed off but now I'm awake, I dreamed about 1978
I was thirty years old living all alone, and I heard our song on the radio"
Where the boy reaches over, turns the volume up
"Say, it's playing now, baby, it must've woke you up"
Then they fade on into the city lights
Driving on a golden oldie night for Wendy
