Cherry Bowl Drive-In - Lyrics by Kadison Joshua


Lyrics
Saw her at the Texaco 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."
And she said "
Well, have you heard..."
They're tearin' down the Cherry Bowl Drive-
In tommorow
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair.
She's goin' the way all things must go somedaybut I will still remember you there.
Yes, I will. Yes, I will.I will still remember you there."
Then I said, "
Little Melissa, she's lookin' more and more like you.
Saw her down on Maple Street, she's even got your same smile, too.
And my Jake Jr. says '
Daddy, someday I'm gonna marry that girl.'
Isn't that just perfect? Such a crazy world."
So, they're tearin' down the Cherry Bowl Drive-
In tommorow?
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair.
She's goin' the way all things must go somedaybut I will still remember you there.
Yes, I will. Yes, I will.I will still remember you there."
Hey, can you get away tommorow?
If you can't, I understand
It's just that when the big screen falls
I'd like to be holdin' your hand,holdin' your hand"when they're tearin' down the Cherry Bowl Drive-
In tommorow.
Where I first kissed you and ran my fingers through your hair.
She's goin' the way all things must go somedaybut I will still remember you there.
Yes, I will. Yes, I will.I will still remember us there.
