John Mayer Lyrics

13 Lyrics

I've these dreams of

Walking home

Home where 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 

"Wrapping 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

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
