One lonely night.....at this drive-in.
And now I know.....what a fool Ive been.
She was to meet me.. (an empty cup, a broken date.)
we had a date.. (a broken date, an empty cup.)
a date at seven....I dreamed of Heaven,
now, its 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.
Ive hit the bottom...now Im all alone.
All alone.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
