Lyrics Joshua Kadison – Cherry Bowl Drive–In
Text:
Saw her at the Texico just the other day
Even more beautiful her hair had a touch of grey
We both stood and stared at each other
Couldn’t say a word , then I said: «God, it’s good to see you»
«They’re tearing down the Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair
She’s going away, all things must go some day
But I will still remember you there
Yes I will still remember you there»
Then I said: «Little Melissa, she’s looking more and more like you
I saw her down on Maple Street she’s even got your same smile too»
And my Jake junior says: «Daddy, someday I’m gonna marry that girl»
Isn’t that just perfect, it’s such a crazy world
«So they’re tearing down the Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair
She’s going away, all things must go some day
But I will still remember you there»
«Can you get away tomorrow, if you can’t I’ll understand
It’s just that when the big screen falls I wanna be holding your hand
Holding your hand»
When they’re tearing down the Cherry Bowl Drive-In tomorrow
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair
She’s going away, all things must go some day
But I will still remember you there
Yes, I will. Yes, I will
I will still remember us there
