I've Got an Invitation to a Dance

I've got an invitation to a dance

But I don't think I'll go

I'd be sorry I know

I'm afraid I might see

The one who should be with me

With somebody else

I've got an invitation to a dance

It's the town's big affair

All our friends will be there

They may talk when they see

The one who should be with me

With somebody else

For I don't want to start a lot of gossip

Out of sight is out of mind!

Maybe there is still a chance to make up

And we will wake up and find

We're leaving happiness behind!

I've got an invitation to a dance

I could bring someone new

But what good would it do?

It would hurt me to see

The one who should be with me

With somebody else

I don't wanna start a lot of gossip

Out of sight is out of mind!

Maybe there is still a chance to make up

And we will wake up and find

We're leaving happiness behind!

I've got an invitation to a dance

I could bring someone new

But what good would it do?

It would hurt me to see

The one who should be with me

With somebody else
