    Save it for your summer holiday
  • You'll forget about me, When your name is on the marquee
    And the rich boys come out to play, Upon Avenue "A"
     
  • Verse 2
     
    You've got your reasons
  • And I've got mine
    I'll nail your cards and letter on the wall
    To remind me that you are still out there
  • Because I won't know the girl on the screen at all
     
    Chorus
  •  
    Cut out my heart
    And nail it away
  • And save it for your summer holiday
    You'll forget about me
    When your name is on the marquee
  • And your up on Avenue "A"
    Cut out my heart
    And nail it away
  • And save it for your summer holiday
    Teach them how to laugh and feel
    When they put you to the test
  • For there is something special in you
    That you must express
    Don't forget about me
  • When your name is on the marquee
    And the rich men come to stay
    Up on Avenue "A"
  • Up on Avenue "A"
