가사
[Verse 1]
On the edge of Wilkins Township, where the movie lights would glow,
Showcase Cinemas stood tall, many years ago.
Opened in '76, a theater grand and bright,
Silent Movie and Clint Eastwood, on that first night.
[Pre-Chorus]
But the reels stopped turning, the laughter fades away,
In 2004, the curtain fell, on that final day.
[Chorus]
Goodbye, Showcase memories, where the stories used to play,
Rows of empty seats, no more matinee.
Echoes of the past, in each tear we cry,
Goodbye, dear Showcase, this is our last goodbye.
[Verse 2]
Owned by National Amusements, it was the place to be,
Ten screens of magic, for all to see.
But time took its toll, and the crowds did wane,
New complexes opened, leaving it in pain.
[Pre-Chorus]
From "Star Wars" to blockbusters, it showed them all,
Now the walls have crumbled, the theater’s gone.
[Chorus]
Goodbye, Showcase memories, where the stories used to play,
Rows of empty seats, no more matinee.
Echoes of the past, in each tear we cry,
Goodbye, dear Showcase, this is our last goodbye.
[Bridge]
The lobby roof was failing, the seats were wearing thin,
Sewage pipes were broken, the problems piled in.
Demolished in 2010, just memories remain,
A Sheetz now stands, where we used to entertain.
[Chorus]
Goodbye, Showcase memories, where the stories used to play,
Rows of empty seats, no more matinee.
Echoes of the past, in each tear we cry,
Goodbye, dear Showcase, this is our last goodbye.
[Outro]
So here’s to the nights, with friends and movie dreams,
To every showing, and the big screen gleams.
Though the building’s gone, the spirit stays high,
In the hearts of those who remember, this is not truly goodbye.
