1983 Lyrics


I've been here looking dynamite
Alone against the wall
Girls like you give it all so cold
Talking cheap in a bathroom stallAnd look so smooth, you better tell me the truth
Would you trade me out for someone cool?
I know you better than you do
So put out your cigarette and kiss me on the lips tonightMe and you, you and me
Let's go back, let's go back, 1983 is calling
I've been on my knees and crawling
Back to you, it's coming all back to me, 1983I've got something that I've kept inside
And the blood is on the blade
You're there sucking on a lollipop
Like you haven't aged a dayAnd it ain't so pretty when you're playing cute
When your body's up against some fool
Does he feel it?
'Cause I feel itMe and you, you and me
Let's go back, let's go back, 1983 is calling
I've been on my knees and crawling

Back to you, it's coming all back to me, 1983The year I was born I won't be ignored
So get your feet on the floor
I'm the only one, are you afraid?
I still make you moveMe and you, you and me
Let's go back to 1983
Me and you, you and me
Let's go back to 1983Me and you, you and me
Let's go back, let's go back, 1983 is calling
I've been on my knees and crawling
Back to you, it's coming all back to me, 1983Me and you, you and me
Let's go back, let's go back, 1983 is calling
I've been on my knees and crawling
Back to you, it's coming all back to me, 19831983, 1983

“Musically, we don't know what the end destination is, and I like it that way. Whatever we've created, it wasn't by accident, but it certainly wasn't on purpose. For me that makes music honest,” says Ron Fountenberry, the principal songwriter and unofficial captain of the good ship that is the Softlightes. Without digging too far back, the Softlightes story begins (roughly) in 2003, when Fountenberry and bassist Kristian Dunn’s previous project, the electro pop group The Incredible Moses Leroy, had caught the ear of one Mr. Cody Chesnutt. Or was it the other way around? “I remember seeing a four star review of Cody’s album in Rolling Stone and thinking to myself ‘It’s not that often that a black artist who isn’t doing a straight r&b thing gets that kind of attention,’” remembers Fountenberry.
