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.
