What a night!
Oh what a night!
Into the showroom we went,
Sat at our table,
Ordered our drinks.
Then onto the stage they came,
The tribute band.
They were all there,
The Everlys, Buddy Holly,
And Jerry Lee Lewis,
Playing those songs of my youth.
The audience were drawn in
As we all knew the words,
Knew the words of every song,
As we had known them,
Known them all our long lives.
And evening filled with joy,
With joy, music and laughter.
They played without stopping
Bringing such memories to our hearts,
For two glorious hours.
A wonderful evening to remember,
And will always be in my heart.
