Description
This is a song I wrote to my wife to play on our wedding day. She was the first woman I ever got the courage to go up to, without some goofy pretense to ask out. I didn't have many words, but we joke that I came dangeously close to using some cheesy pickup lines at one point. what can I say? I was hopelessly after her from the moment I met her :)
Lyrics
Pardon me, is this seat taken? I’m sure you’ve heard that line before Though I’ve never said it myself, this is something I can’t ignore 'Cause there are so many in this world Who see the shell and never-ever see the pearl So let me take this chance and give it a whirl Just this once…just this once So we dine, the tab is mine There I go, I crossed the line Lord knows it won’t be the last time For you and I, cause I can’t lie I hope we can give this another try And I won’t have to use, that same old line Hello again, remember me My mind races for the next thing to say Most know the dating game isn’t for me So I look up to find my next play We’ve all got miles of baggage in our past We carry it through and try to hold fast Hoping for the one that will last And wash the rest away Wash it all away So would you mind? Let’s spend some time Hope I didn’t, cross the line Praying this won’t be the last time For you and I, cause I can’t lie I hope we can make this a lifetime And I won’t have to use That same old line We’ve got bills to pay, bricks to lay There’s no room for gray He’s got some plans, so take my hand Let me show you where I stand… On bended knee, listen to me Sometimes you make it hard for me To breathe But, I would be king, if you wore this ring And I will make you my everything Pardon me, Pardon me Is your hand taken? I want to make you my wife Love you your whole life Make sure everyone knows you’re taken! Pardon me? Is this dance taken? You say it’s saved for someone you know A guy who used that same old line Today, one year ago.
