83

John Mayer - 83



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

But 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



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

[03:45.49Rreplace 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



If only my life...(x7)
