JOHN MAYER - 83 LYRICS

83 Lyrics

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

john mayer's album? fantastic. great songs, great beat, it's a FANTASTICALLY DELICIOUS album! can never get enough listening to it. i believe he'll sustain in long haul in the music industry. and i also believe that there are many who'll be waiting for his next albums or singles, cause he's worth waiting for.

This is one of the greatest songs ever, it's just about my favorite song on the CD, I can't explain why though, you just have to hear it. I must say that this and 3 X 5 is also a fantastic song! Oh, and it does help that it's being sung by one of the sexiest guys ever with one of the sexiest voices I have ever heard.

I love this song! Brings back childhood memories, especially that damned lunchbox! I can't seem to find my plastic Aladdin lunchbox anymore! No wait, even older, my tin lunchbox I used to have in kindergarten! John wishes that our lives could be as uncomplicated as that of children...don't we all? Great work!

okay, well, you all can have John if he's straight, but anything else, and he's MINE!!! there's something just so incredibly sexy about that man... his voice, his face, his eyes,his relaxed attitude, his soul..... oh, and the song is good, too :-P

I heard this great music being played before an IMAX theater film, and loved it! Unfortunately, the usher did not know who the musician was! I tried to remember some of the lyrics, and went on the web to try to find the lyric "83". And here I am - thank you so much - I am going to find the CD, tape and buy it! My kids liked it too - ages 4 and 9, great stuff!
