Someone left a song in the mailboxI told myself I wouldn't scan itBut it's been a long time since I let him inI guess I've changed my mind
The song served as the title track for Summer’s first greatest hits compilation, On the Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes I & II . It exemplifies the "Moroder Sound"—a blend of driving electronic beats and orchestral arrangements—while showcasing Summer’s soulful, gospel-trained vocal range.
And you said it had to beIf you only knew the way I feltAnd I heard it on the radioAnd I knew that it was youAnd you said it had to beIf you only knew the way I feltAnd I heard it on the radioAnd I knew that it was you
Now I'm sitting here and I'm wonderingHow I'm gonna get it back to youIt’s a long time since I let you inAnd I think I’ve changed my mindIt was only yesterdayWhen we were on the runYou were the only oneAnd it was love
