Jennifer Hanson `73 Lyrics

`73 Lyrics

Southern California, standin' in the drive

A picture perfect moment, frozen in time

Mom holdin' dad, dad holdin' me in '73



There's me in that striped dress, beneath the Big Boy sign

Bottom of the Polaroid says fall of '79

Yeah, that's the night that Dad tried to explain to me

Why he had to leave



Everythin' changes, hey, that's reality

Sometimes I wonder how all our lives would be

If they'd a stayed in love like they were in '73



Here's pictures openin' presents, December '83

Some with mom and some with dad, two different Christmas trees

And there's me and my new half brother

In his baby blue outfit, winter '86



Mom and I, we both survived those awkward teenage years

Graduation '91, dad flew back to be there

There's me in my cap and gown

Standin' between them, the three of us again



Everythin' changes, hey, that's reality

Sometimes I wonder how all our lives would be

If they'd a stayed in love



Everythin' changes, hey, that's reality

Sometimes I wonder how all our lives would be

If they'd 'a stayed in love like they were in '73

'73, '73, '73
