"83"
[00:15.28] I've these dreams I'm walking home
[00:19.40] Home when it used to be
[00:23.03] And everything is as it was
[00:27.28] Frozen in front of me
[00:31.06] Here I stand, 6 feet small
[00:34.91] Romanticizing years ago
[00:38.41] But it's a bitter sweet feeling
[00:40.52] Hearing "Wrapped Around Your Finger" on the radio
[00:46.75] And these days
[00:50.63] I wish I was 6 again
[00:53.64] Oh, make me a red cape
[00:58.63] I want to be Superman
[01:00.99] Oh, if only my life was more like 1983
[01:09.90] All these things would be
[01:11.52] More like they were at the start of me
[01:15.77] Heaven made in '83
[01:19.71] .
[01:26.11] Thinking about my brother, Ben
[01:29.35] I miss him every day
[01:33.60] He looks just like his brother, John
[01:37.51] But on an 18 month delay
[01:41.77] Here I stand, 6 feet small
[01:45.88] And smiling because I'm scared as hell
[01:49.73] Kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie
[01:53.51] Where the actor's names have changed, oh well
[01:57.28] Well, these days
[02:01.66] I wish I was 6 again
[02:04.04] Oh, make me a red cape
[02:09.53] I want to be Superman
[02:11.94] Oh, if only my life was more like 1983
[02:20.81] All these things would be
[02:22.19] More like they were at the start of me
[02:28.21] If my life was more like 1983
[02:36.59] I'd plot a course to the source of the purest little part of me
[02:46.22] And most my memories have escaped me
[02:54.35] Or confused themselves with dreams
[03:02.10] If heaven's all we want it to be
[03:07.99] Send your prayers to me
[03:11.99] Care of 1983
[03:18.92] .
[03:39.40] You can paint that house a rainbow of colors
[03:44.03] Rip out the floorboards
[03:45.91] Replace the shutters but
[03:48.78] That's my plastic in the dirt
[03:56.06] Whatever happened to my
[03:58.30] Whatever happened to my
[04:00.06] Whatever happened to my lunchbox?
[04:04.25] When came the day that it got thrown away
[04:10.10] And don't you think I should have had some say in that decision?
[04:18.44] If only my life
