Saw her at the Texaco just the other day.

Even more beautiful, her hair had touch of gray.

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 tomorrow,

where I first kissed you and you ran my fingers through your hair.

She's goin' the way all things must go someday,

but, 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, somebody 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 tomorrow,

where I first kissed you and you ran my fingers through your hair.

She's goin' the way all things must go someday,

but, I will still remember you there.

Yes, I will. Yes, I will.

I will still remember you there."



"Hey, can you get away tomorrow?

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 tomorrow,

where I first kissed you and you ran my fingers through your hair.

She's goin' the way all things must go someday,

but, I will still remember you there.

Yes, I will. Yes, I will.

I will still remember us there
