I was thinking back to the first time we meet Over You were waving goodbye in a cherry red Corvette And you lips were to Cherry red that is With the skies so blue It was almost mean and your eyes were to So blue that is And I am to And my heart burns cherry red for you [Chorus:] Now my heart burns cherry red for you Like a fire of beechwood 'Cause I don't like it But you get some cut one match will strike And the embers glow till the wee small hours When old seems almost new That's when my heart burns cherry red for you It was cherry red with the custom flames At the hot rod show, when the Kingsmen came And that ba** guitar it rattled my frame And it shook you to The Corvette was Big Daddy Ross design Get you picture for a dollar and have it signed
First you've got yours then I've got mine And my heart burned cherry red for you [Chorus:] That's when my heart burns cherry red for you That's when my heart burns cherry red for you That's when my heart burns cherry red for you Well that big blue sky it sure looked real Like you were going to California to make a deal With the God of youth, with the man of steel Waving toodle loo Now if I was young I might track you down But this old picture is all I've found Now my bones are shaking My teeth are ground down But my heart burns cherry red for you [Chorus:] That's when my heart burns cherry red That's when my heart burns cherry red That's when my heart burns cherry red for you
