An Empty Cup (And a Broken Date)
One lonely night - at this drive-in
And now I know - what a fool I've 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 it's way past eight
She just drove by - with another guy
No wonder I can't 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
I've hit the bottom - now I'm all alone
And now I know - what a fool I've 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 it's way past eight
She just drove by - with another guy
No wonder I can't 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
I've hit the bottom - now I'm all alone
