Loved D-D in the 80's and this is why I like this song - it sounds a lot to me like the 80's D-D. Really like the lyrics, it's like pongratz said it is about focusing on the now - it would be nice to be back in 1983 and be 30 years younger but you have to roll with the present. There are little sexual messages in most of DD songs and that's the way I take this one. I see from the lyrics a young girl from the 80's who may have lost confidence in her looks and would be shay and stay in the shadows, but Simon is saying that you you've still got it:
"When you move into the light
You're the greatest thing alive"
lots of girls in their 40's & 50's are still hot but they never hear it from anyone - the song says "And you sway in the moon
The way you did
When you were younger"
that the older girl just needs some encouragement to party like they did when they were younger
