So what is "Radar Love?" I don't get it.?

Question

Capo 2]

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel

There's a voice in my head that drives my heel

It's my baby callin', says I need you here

And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear

/ Em7 Em Em7 Em / :

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much

She sends a cable comin' in from above

We don't need no phone at all

We've got a thing that's called radar love

We've got a wave in the air, radar love

/ D - A E / D - A - / B - / C G D Em / C G D - Em7 Em Em7 Em /

The radio's playing some forgotten song

Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong"

The road's got me hypnotized

And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough

She sends her comfort, comin' in from above

Don't need no radio at all

We've got a thing that's called radar love

We’ve got a line in the sky, radar love

No more speed, I'm almost there

Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care

Last car to pass, here I go

And the line of cars drove down real slow

And the radio played that forgotten song

Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong"

And the newsman sang his same song

One more radar lover's gone

When I'm feeling lonely and I'm sure I've had enough

She sends the comfort coming in from above

Don't need no radio at all

We got a thing that's called radar love

We got a line in the sky

We got a thing that's called radar love

We got a thing that's called radar love

Answer 2

I don't get it either, but I do like that song. Even though it makes no sense

Answer 3

It's about two people with a telepathic connection.

Answer 4

A guy who is speeding to get to his lover but ends up dead in a car crash. My interpretation anyway.

Answer 5

I believe it is a term used to identify a human who is involved in a relationship with an x-ray machine that no one understands.

It could also be a person affected by those radio waves from aliens in outer space.

But then, maybe it's just literary license on the part of the songwriter.

Answer 6

phone s*x on cb radio...lmao

Answer 7

When she desires loving you can pick it up on your inner radar.
