You asked me to formal just a few days ago,
I didn’t have to think, I would never say no.
I never thought that you would ask me,
And I’m very glad, and you said you agree.
I just can’t wait till that special night,
I’m sure everything will be just right.
I hope we have fun and take a chance,
To be together and dance a slow dance.
