Phone in my hand, heart beating fast, Hoping this courage is finally gonna last. The late-night DJ says, "Who's on the line?" I whisper, "Hi... I think I'm doing fine." He says, "Who gets your favorite tune?" I blush so hard in my little room. I heard you talking on the beach today, You said this show always ends your day. So if you're listening underneath these stars... Maybe you'll know this heart is ours. Play it for my mystery boy tonight, The one who makes my whole world shine. Don't say his name, don't ask me why, I'm still too shy to even try. Somewhere beneath this midnight sky, He's got his radio turned up high. If he remembers every clue... Maybe he'll know this song's for you. The DJ laughs, "Come on, tell me who!" I giggle, "No... that's between me and you." "If I say your name, you´ll hear it for sure..." "And I'll never survive tomorrow at the shore." "Just tell him someone hopes he smiles, Someone who walks a few feet behind. Someone who looks away every time... Even though he's always on her mind." Oh... one more little favor, please, Before the music starts to play... I've got my cassette ready to record... Don't talk over the intro today! Play it for my mystery boy tonight, The one who makes my whole world shine. Don't say his name, don't ask me why, I'm still too shy to even try. Somewhere beneath this midnight sky, He's got his radio turned up high. If he remembers every clue... Maybe he'll know this song's for you. The red REC button clicks into place, Static... then music fills the space. My little tape keeps every sound, Except my heartbeat beating loud. Maybe tomorrow we'll pass again, Barefoot walking through the sand. And maybe... just maybe... he'll smile that way... Like he already understands. Play it for my mystery boy tonight, Across the waves and neon lights. No one else has to ever know, Some secrets bloom when the night winds blow. Keep that record spinning slow, Let every lonely radio glow. One little song... one summer dream... Maybe you know just what I mean. "Goodnight, FM 86..." I whispered with a hopeful smile. The cassette clicked... the stars stayed awake... And somewhere... a mystery boy listened all the while. --
