Invitation To the Blues (2001 - Remaster)
My heart was all dressed up to go dancing.
I had a brand new shine on my views.
The roses you sent for, the line that I went for
Was just an invitation to the blues.
The very thought of love was entrancing.
I figured I had nothing to lose.
Your smile so elusive, your kiss so exclusive
Was just an invitation to the blues.
I went to town, priced a wedding gown,
Put my little red book on the shelf,
Hired a hall, got the band and all,
And marched down the aisle by myself.
I guess you can't depend on romancing.
It puts your heart right down in your shoes.
Instead of a wedding for which I was heading,
I got an invitation to blues.
I had a brand new shine on my views.
The roses you sent for, the line that I went for
Was just an invitation to the blues.
The very thought of love was entrancing.
I figured I had nothing to lose.
Your smile so elusive, your kiss so exclusive
Was just an invitation to the blues.
I went to town, priced a wedding gown,
Put my little red book on the shelf,
Hired a hall, got the band and all,
And marched down the aisle by myself.
I guess you can't depend on romancing.
It puts your heart right down in your shoes.
Instead of a wedding for which I was heading,
I got an invitation to blues.
