Lyrics

SAVE ME A PLACE (Warren Boutros, Jon D'Agostino, Kathie Eidson)

A crowded senior high school hall was where he saw her smile
He was locker eighty-eight, she was eighty- nine
He took a chance, held out his hand
Said "the first day's always rough without a friend
Homeroom's just around the bend, science lab's next to the gym
The lunch bell rings 11:28, save me a place"

CHORUS:
   Save me a place, I want to get to know you better
   Just a little space, anywhere next to you
   Something bout' the way
   you made me feel when I saw that smile on your face
   Save me a place

A hundred love notes later he was getting on a plane
He knew that she was torn about his dream job in LA
Hoped to God he'd see her at that gate, with a suitcase in her hand
He wiped a tear, and grabbed his bag
Took a step and felt a tap
Suddenly he turned to hear her say "save me a place"

CHORUS:
   Save me a place, I want to grow old together
   Just a little space, anywhere next to you
   Cause no one makes me feel the way you do
   And I need your love everyday
   Save me a place

BRIDGE:
For fifty years they laughed and cried, and loved their way through
life
Till the night the doctor told him, it was time to say, goodbye

CHORUS:
   Save me a place, I need to be with you forever
   Just a little space, anywhere next to you
   And when I pass those gates , I know that I'll be smiling
   Just to see your face

   Save me a place
