A bottle of white, a bottle of red /
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead
We'll get a table near the street /
In our old familiar place / You and I, face to face, mmmm...
A bottle of red, a bottle of white /
It all depends upon your appetite
I'll meet you any time you want / In
our Italian Restaurant.

Things are okay with me these days /
Got a good job, got a good office
Got a new wife, got a new life / And
the family's fine
We lost touch long ago / You lost
weight I did not know
That you would ever look so good
after / So much time.
Do you remember those days hanging
out / At the village green
Engineer boots, leather jackets /
And tight blue jeans / You drop a dime in the box play a song about New Orleans
Cold beer, hot lights / My sweet
romantic teenage nights

Brenda and Eddie were the / Popular
steadys / And the king and the queen / Of the prom
Riding around with the car top /
Down and the radio on.
Nobody looked any finer / Or
was more of a hit at the / Parkway Diner
We never knew we could want more than
that out of life

Brenda and Eddy were still going steady
in the summer of '75 / when they decided the marriage would / Be at the end of
July
Everyone said they were crazy / "Brenda
you know you're much too lazy
Eddie could never afford to live
that Kind of life." / But there we were wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye.
They got an apartment with deep Pile
carpet / And a couple of paintings from Sears
A big waterbed that they bought With
the bread / They had saved for a couple of years
They started to fight when the money
got tight / And they just didn't count on the tears.
They lived for a while in a Very
nice style / But it's always the same in the end
They got a divorce as a matter of
course / And they parted the closest of friends
Then the king and the queen went
back to the green / But you can never go back there again.
Brenda and Eddie had had it already
by the summer of '75
From the high to the low to the end
of the show
For the rest of their lives
They couldn't go back to the
greasers
The best they could do was pick up
the pieces
We always knew they would both find
a way to get by
That's all I heard about Brenda nd
Eddie
Can't tell you more than I told you
already
And here we are wavin' Brenda and
Eddie goodbye.
A bottle of red, a bottle of white
Whatever kind of mood you're in
tonight
I'll meet you anytime you want
In our Italian Restaurant
