Industrial Hearts
You held a rotary phone,
a world on a single line A typewriter's rhythm,
a slower, sweeter time Film cameras catching moments,
waiting for the light CDs and cassettes keeping memories burning bright Vinyl
records spinning, a song for every soul A boombox on the corner
making every spirit whole (Making every spirit whole)
Zap me back to the eighties!
Take me back! Where the heart beat loud and the magic wouldn't
slack! Oh-oh-oh, zap me back to the eighties — you're the gold,
you're the flame
Shining through the decades,
nothing's ever the same!
A lifetime of wonders,
a love so true Everything timeless — everything YOU!
Zap me back to the eighties!
Take me back!
VHS tapes winding, the stories that we shared Recording songs off the
radio, showing how much we cared
Video store Fridays, the magic of a chosen night Handwritten postcards sent
with love, keeping hearts alight Paper maps for journeys,
old books upon the shelf A quiet place of learning how to
discover your own self
(Discover your own self) Zap me back to the eighties!
Take me back! Where the heart beat loud and the magic wouldn't
slack! Oh-oh-oh, zap me back to the eighties — you're the gold,
you're the
flame Shining through the decades,
nothing's ever the same!
A lifetime of wonders,
a love so true Everything timeless — everything YOU!
Zap me back to the eighties!
Take me back!
Every handwritten letter, every seed that you've sown
The most beautiful journey this world has ever known
Yeah, you've given it all
(Given it all) The love and the light
