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
