Ask That Girl to Dance

I've spent a lifetime waiting for my day to come along
For the perfect moment to arrive
But those are few and far between if they exist at all
And I've come to realize
This truth, in life
You can't believe how fast it flies

So ask that girl to dance
What's the worst she could do?
It might break your heart but the chances are
She's wishing you would too
You can spend your whole life sitting on your hands
Or you can walk across the room
And ask that girl to dance

You wake up one morning, like a million times before
Grab a cup and try to come to life
You look into the mirror at a stranger looking back
With a touch of gray and age in their eyes
Wondering where, the time goes
Take it from someone who knows

You better ask that girl to dance
What's the worst that she could do?
It might break your heart but the chances are
She's wishing you would too
You can spend your whole life sitting on your hands
Or you can walk across the room
And ask that girl to dance

Don't spend your whole life sitting on your hands
Just walk across the room
And ask that girl to dance

It's okay to take a chance
And ask that girl to dance
