~Drive-In Nights~
From July 2000
Drive-In Nights
That old Drive-In stands alone
Waiting on an empty parking lot
Friday nights twenty years ago
We'd leave early to get our favorite spot
Last row back corner
Makin' out we'd miss most of the show
Sneak ya home round 2a.m.
Hoping that your daddy would never know
Drive-In Nights, waiting on that settin' sun
In the pale moonlight, I'll never forget all the things we'd done
The heart felt conversation, our first kiss that sweet sensation
We were in our teens, the future looked so bright
I always thought we'd have those Drive-In Nights
Time gave way to progress
And that old Drive-In didn't fit the plan
A new Cinema Four went up down-town
It was the latest craze, I'll never understand
The Drive-In closed for the season
It became another page in history
Now I find I'm parked in time
Last row back corner of my memory
Drive-In Nights, waitin' on that settin' sun
In the pale moon light, I'll never forget all the things we'd done
We'd leave that speaker on the pole, I'd tune in my radio
We fell in love by the glow of the dashboard lights
I always thought we'd have those...
Drive-In Nights, waiting on that settin' sun
In the pale moonlight, I'll never forget all the things we'd done
The heart felt conversation, our first kiss that sweet sensation
How I wish I may, I wish I might
Be with you for one more Drive-In Night.
Oh Yeah, U-huh, Drive-In Nights...(repeat & fade)
