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