An Empty Cup A Broken Date - Lyrics by Roy Orbison


Lyrics

One lonely night at this drive-in
And now i know what a fool i've been

She was to meet me, we had a date
A date at seven, i dreamed of heaven
Now it's way past eight

She just drove by with another guy
No wonder i cant help but cry

To think she never cared just tears me up
Now all i have to show for love
Is this empty cup
Just like this coke, my love is gone
I've hit the bottom, now i'm gone
