1983 Songtext
von Limahl

Do you know what I want to do?
I want to go back in time

Futuristic drum machines
and monophonic beeps

Androgynous identity
was risque, but so chic

And they called it New Wave
introduced by VJs

The Human League (indistinct)
in my head

I want to go back in time
to 1983

I want jump back tonight
to 1983

Take me back, rewind
to 1983

I want to go right back,
in a flashback, baby
to 1983


Remember the heyday
of the new romantic style

Electropop was all the rage
when MTV arrived

Give me synthesizers
I want 12" vinyl

Duran Duran and SOft Cell
on cassette

I want to go back in time
to 1983

I want jump back tonight
to 1983

Take me back, rewind
to 1983

I want to go right back,
in a flashback, baby
to 1983

Come on, come on
Come on, baby

I want to go back in time
to 1983


I want jump back tonight
to 1983

Take me back, rewind
to 1983

I want to go right back,
in a flashback, baby
to 1983
