I brushed my hair before the show Mama said be back by ten The drive-in lights were shining bright When you asked me where I’d been You bought a soda, laughed out loud When the picture flickered slow And when the music filled the air You asked me if I’d go ⸻ Tonight he walked me home again Down the street beneath the trees And when he said goodnight to me My heart fell to my knees Tonight he walked me home again And the whole wide world felt new I never knew a girl could feel The way I do with you ⸻ The summer breeze was soft and warm The porch light glowing gold You held my books against your chest Like they were yours to hold I tried to say a thousand things But every word got lost The way you smiled before goodbye Was worth the waiting cost ⸻ Tonight he walked me home again Down the street beneath the trees And when he said goodnight to me My heart fell to my knees Tonight he walked me home again And the whole wide world felt new I never knew a girl could feel The way I do with you ⸻ Maybe tomorrow at the hall When the band begins to play You’ll take my hand and spin me round And steal my breath away ⸻ Tonight he walked me home again And the moon was shining bright If this is what they call first love I hope it lasts all night.
