lyrics

Boy lost in his own thoughts
Barefoot in the parking lot
Rain heating off the pavement
Wondering where the time went
Comes home to number #38
TV dinner and Happy Days
Peach Cobbler, Salisbury steak
Parents both have to work late
Stopped trying to sleep long ago
Ear’s plastered to the radio
Sounds coming in from outer space
Promises of a new place

Girl dreams out a window
Thinks of ideas she doesn’t know
Sony Walkman on her right hip
Never lets that beat slip
Drives past the Tastee Freeze
To Apartment number #43
Passes boy on the outer stairs
Never really ever sees him there
Stopped trying to sleep long ago
Her ear plastered to her radio
Sounds coming in from outer space
Promises of a new place

Boy writes 100 songs for girl
Invents a life in a new world
Sets a course for outer space
Promises himself a new place
