How could I forget what she had on Halter top with the capri pants on Had a smile that would stop time And pretty feet which is a fetish of mine Hair down to her shoulders barely Lip gloss with no make-up surely I wasn't gonna let her get away Until she heard me say Excuse me miss What's your name Where are you from And I come and possibly Can I take you out tonight To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know Can I take you out tonight Don't care if I get rejected At least then I won't regret it Regret the fact I missed the chance For romance at least I walk away knowing I tried my best And I'm going, I'm going on with my day Cause at least she heard me say Excuse me miss What's your name Where are you from And I come and possibly Can I take you out tonight To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know Can I take you out tonight Excuse me miss What's your name Where are you from And I come and possibly Can I take you out tonight To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know Can I take you out tonight That's why I had to come over And introduce myself to you Cause you never gonna know When you're gonna find love And hopefully I'll find it in you Excuse me miss What's your name Where are you from And I come and possibly Can I take you out tonight To a movie, to the park I'll have you home before it's dark So let me know Can I take you out tonight
