Song lyrics

I'll have these dreams I'm walking home,
Home where it used to be,
Everything is as it was
Frozen in front of me.

Here I stand six feet small
Romanticizing years ago,
Well, it's a bittersweet feeling
Hearing "Wrapped Around Your Finger" on the radio.

And these days
I wish I was six 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,
I had it made in ‘83.

Thinking about my brother Ben,
I miss him everyday,
He looks just like his brother John
But on an eighteen month delay.

Here I stand six feet small
And smiling cause I'm scared as hell,
Kinda like your life is like a sequel to a movie
where the actors' names have changed.

Well, these days
I wish I was six 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,
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 they 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
And replace the shutters,
But that's my plastic in the dirt.

Whatever happened to my,
Whatever happened to my,
Whatever happened to my,
Whatever happened to my lunchbox
When came the day when it got
Thrown away,
Don't you think I should have had some say in that decision?

More like,
More like,
More like 1983.
