You will find me standing here
A silhouette against the sunset
Feeling on the lower side of down
On this beach we walked together
Holding hands and sharing moments
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Cheri came to me riding high on a silver bird
To bide your time and rest your mind in paradise
You were lovelier than Venus
With your eyes as dark as midnight
And a fetching way to captivate my soul
Though your time here had to end
We became much more than friends
As we shared a bit of time between our lives
Cheri came to me riding high on a silver bird
To bide your time and rest your mind in paradise
There's a chance she said in time
That her life she would unwind
And fly back to my arms once again
So I'm still waiting here
Though it's been so many years
And I'll probably wait for many many more
Cheri came to me riding high on a silver bird
To bide your time and rest your mind in paradise
