What's this song about?

1
It was the Senior High School yearbook
2
The class of '63
3
I'll never forget the way you gave
4
Your book and pen to me
5
It was all talked out and settled
6
You new I'd understand
7
A girl with dreams as big as yours
8
Just had to make some plans
9
So I turned to your best picture
10
Most Likely To Succeed
11
The only one in the whole damn book
12
That didn't show you with me
13
And it said that you liked inner strenth
14
So I tried to be true to form
15
And I hid my teenage broken heart
16
Instead I signed this poem
17
I hope you always drive a Cadillac
18
I hope you always drink champagne
19
I hope you always shine with the sunshine
20
I hope you never have to face the rain
21
Unless the clouds are lined with silver
22
May every heart you meet be gold
23
And may you find the world as kind as you've been told
24
At the ten year class reunion
25
They read your personal note
26
And displayed your cover photograph
27
In your full length sable coat
28
But the words underneath the picture
29
Were what mattered most to me
30
There was something in between the lines
31
That no one else could see...
32
It said-
33
I always drive a Cadillac
34
I always drink champagne
35
And if you make time while the sun shines
36
You never have to face the rain
37
I travel fast because I go alone
38
Everybody gets bought and sold
39
And I wondered if you'd really become that cold
40
That was the last word anyone heard from you
41
Until I got your card today
42
A single line and signature
43
That said "I'm coming home to stay"
44
I wonder what life has done to you
45
I wonder why you thought of me
46
But if you stop by to say hello
47
I wonder what you'll think if you see
48
An old ragged high school yearbook
49
That falls open to just one page
50
With a picture of a young girl's face
51
Full of beauty, dreams and rage
52
But the words underneath the picture
53
Is the verse that's still so true
54
It's the one I swore no one would read
55
Unless I showed it to you
56
I hope you always drive a Cadillac
57
I hope you always drink champagne
58
And you'll carry my heart wherever you go
59
Even if I never see you again
60
But if you bring it back home to me
61
Maybe then it'll mean you know
62
That the strongest love's the love that let's you go...
63
I hope you always drive a Cadillac...
