God i am nothing but a boy in my room
But when i stand at the windowsill and i look at the moon
And i know something is rising to another dimension
Going out of my mind and way across the midwestern expanses
It dances out under the stars it's a prayer and it's there when i'm riding in cars
And when i'm listening to music, when i'm watching tv
I don't know how to say it, i get down on my knees, in my room
In the evening, when no one's around, i turn on the radio and turn up the sound

I say no, no don't fall through
I need you
Call me up right now
I'd call you but i don't know how

It started out when i was 10 years old
I climbed into the driver's seat, the car started to roll down a hill
And i fell deep in love with a lady who i hadn't yet met
Oh but she made me her baby, right then found a pen
Started writing a poem, and it's not done, i continue every time i'm alone
And i know that she's out there, and i know you can hear me
How i'd love to be real, and i want you to be near me, but the radio's broken
The phone's out of service, and we've got no connection and it's making me nervous

I say no, no don't fall out
I call out
In this night's last hour
I'm feeling that mysterious power

God i am nothing but a boy in my room,
A boy in my room feeling that mysterious power
