Twelve forty eight

The radio plays

I'm all set to take a journey



Britain sleeps

Under winter stars

Street lights stretch out before me

Twelve forty eight

The radio plays



Radio Four soon to close

Tell me of Liverpool Crosby

Cast your spell and I will roam

From Beachy Head to Orkney

Radio Four soon to close



Fog patches

Rain later, rain later

Fog patches

Snow showers, snow showers



I can hear the waves now

There's magic at work

I can hear the waves now

There's magic at work

There's magic at work
