Everly Brothers - Always Drive A Cadillac Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • It was the Senior High School yearbook
  • The class of '63
  • I'll never forget the way you gave
  • Your book and pen to me
  • It was all talked out and settled
  • You new I'd understand
  • A girl with dreams as big as yours
  • Just had to make some plans
  • So I turned to your best picture
  • Most Likely To Succeed
  • The only one in the whole damn book
  • That didn't show you with me
  • And it said that you liked inner strenth
  • So I tried to be true to form
  • And I hid my teenage broken heart
  • Instead I signed this poem
  • I hope you always drive a Cadillac
  • I hope you always drink champagne
  • I hope you always shine with the sunshine
  • I hope you never have to face the rain
  • Unless the clouds are lined with silver
  • May every heart you meet be gold
  • And may you find the world as kind as you've been told
  • At the ten year class reunion
  • They read your personal note
  • And displayed your cover photograph
  • In your full length sable coat
  • But the words underneath the picture
  • Were what mattered most to me
  • There was something in between the lines
  • That no one else could see...
  • It said-
  • I always drive a Cadillac
  • I always drink champagne
  • And if you make time while the sun shines
  • You never have to face the rain
  • I travel fast because I go alone
  • Everybody gets bought and sold
  • And I wondered if you'd really become that cold
  • That was the last word anyone heard from you
  • Until I got your card today
  • A single line and signature
  • That said "I'm coming home to stay"
  • I wonder what life has done to you
  • I wonder why you thought of me
  • But if you stop by to say hello
  • I wonder what you'll think if you see
  • An old ragged high school yearbook
  • That falls open to just one page
  • With a picture of a young girl's face
  • Full of beauty, dreams and rage
  • But the words underneath the picture
  • Is the verse that's still so true
  • It's the one I swore no one would read
  • Unless I showed it to you
  • I hope you always drive a Cadillac
  • I hope you always drink champagne
  • And you'll carry my heart wherever you go
  • Even if I never see you again
  • But if you bring it back home to me
  • Maybe then it'll mean you know
  • That the strongest love's the love that let's you go...
  • I hope you always drive a Cadillac
