|
I've these dreams I'm |
|
Walking home |
|
Home when it used to be |
|
And everything is |
|
As it was |
|
Frozen in front of me |
|
Here I stand |
|
6 feet small |
|
romanticizing years ago |
|
it's a bitter sweet feeling hearing 'Wrapped Around Your Finger' on the |
|
radio |
|
and these days |
|
I wish I was 6 again |
|
Oh make me a red cape |
|
I wanna be Superman |
|
Oh, if only my life was more like |
|
1983 |
|
all these things would be more like they were at the |
|
start of me |
|
had it made in 83 |
|
thinking bout my brother Ben |
|
I miss him every day |
|
He looks just like his brother John |
|
But on an 18 month delay |
|
Here I stand |
|
6 feet small |
|
and smiling cause I'm scared as hell |
|
kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie |
|
where the actor's names have changed |
|
oh well |
|
well these days |
|
I wish I was 6 again |
|
Oh make me a red cape |
|
I wanna be Superman |
|
Oh, if only my life was more like |
|
1983 |
|
all these things would be more like they were at the |
|
start of me |
|
If my life was more like |
|
1983 |
|
I'd plot a course to the source of the purest little part of me |
|
and most my memories |
|
have escaped me |
|
or confused themselves with dreams |
|
if heaven's all we want it to be |
|
send your prayers to me |
|
care of 1983 |
|
you can paint that house a rainbow of colors |
|
rip out the floorboards |
|
replace the shutters but |
|
that's my plastic in the dirt |
|
whatever happened to my |
|
whatever happened to my |
|
whatever happened to my lunchbox |
|
when came the day that it got |
|
thrown away and don't you think I should have had some say |
|
in that decision |
