INTRO:

YOU WILL FIND ME STANDING THERE, 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

CHORUS:

CHERI CAME TO ME RIDING HIGH ON A SILVER BIRD

TO BIDE YOUR TIME AND REST YOUR MIND IN PARADISE.

CHERI CAME TO ME RIDING HIGH ON A SILVER BIRD

TO BIDE YOUR TIME AND REST YOUR MIND IN PARADISE.

YOU WERE LOVELIER THEN 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 THEN FRIENDS

AS WE SHARED A BIT OF TIME BETWEEN OUR LIVES.

CHORUS:

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 UNTWINE

AND FLY BACK TO MY ARMS OUNCE AGAIN.

SO I AM STILL WAITING HERE, THOUGH IT’S BEEN SO MANY YEARS

AND I’LL PROBABLY WAIT FOR MANY, MANY MORE.

CHORUS:

CHERI CAME TO ME RIDING HIGH ON A SILVER BIRD

TO BIDE YOUR TIME AND REST YOUR MIND IN PARADISE.
