Invitation For The Blues

Invitation For The Blues - Julie London

Written by：David Bennett/Frederick Hamm/Bert Lown/Chauncey Gray

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

Instead of a wedding for which I was heading

I got an invitation to the blues
