Invitation to the Blues - ANNIE ROSS
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 that kiss so exclusive
Was just an invitation to the blues
When I went to town got a wedding gown
Put my little red book up the shelf
Hired even a hard hall I got the band and all
And I walked down the aisle by myself
I guess you can't depend upon romancing
It put your heart right down in you shoes
Instead of a wedding for which I was heading
I got an invitation to the blues
I guess you can't depend upon romancing
It put your heart right down right down in you shoes
Instead of a wedding for which I was heading
I got an invitation
Such a pretty invitation
I got an invitation to the blues
