1973 Lyrics - Tawny K

Life has changed so much because of social media 

It's not like one moment you can be real with it 

How is it now, we can't talk face to face 

Have we really lost the art of embrace 

You can't even look in my eyes, why you're living this internet life 

I really don't know what you're trying to say to me 

I was willing to give you a chance, but you can't even hold my hand 

Only thoughts from the screen I ever see 

So put down the phone and talk to me now 

It's like you don't even really know how 

Seems a crime, crime, when you can't even look in my eyes 

It's now or never, but fine, fine, but boy it ain't real life 

What's happened to the good old days, before 1973 

When people used to talk and gather in the street 

Things were so different then 

Why can't we pretend to be in 1973

I'm missing the good old days when we would communicate 

It's like we're all stuck in some noncontact phase 

I wanna hear your words, don't wanna read some blurb 

It means nothing to me, no connection truly 

Wanna know who you are, wanna feel real love 

Don't want to see another like with that blue thumb 

So put down the phone and talk to me now 

It's just like you don't know how 

It's a crime, crime, when you can't even look in my eyes 

It's now or never, but fine, fine, but boy it ain't real life 

What's happened to the good old days, before 1973 

When people used to talk and gather in the street 

Take me there, won't you take me there to 1973 

I wanna, I wanna go there

Take me to reality, let's rewind to 1973 

Just you and me 

I want to know what those times were like 

No smart phones, communication to write 

Who knows what life could be like back in 1973 

You can't even look in my eyes, I was willing to give you a chance 

Why you're living this internet life, but you can't even hold my hand 

I really don't know what you're trying to say to me 

What's happened to the good old days, before 1973 

When people used to talk and gather in the street 

Things were so different then in 1973 

When people used to talk and gather in the street 

Things were so different then 

Why can't we pretend to be back in 1973
