Excuse me, I know we just met But may I have this dance? Sitting here with a drink in my hand Your presence I can't ignore I must admit I like watching you dance But it seems like I've seen this before Girl, you look like my first wife Though I've never been married before So I kiss your hand and tell you "Thank you" You turn and ask me what for For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance (Shawn, help me sing it) Hi, my name is Shawn Tell me your name Although I know the last one It's funny that we're shaking hands (Wait a minute, I know this hand) It's the same hand (I'll hold in front of a minister) Same hand (when you're havin' my son and his sister) I don't mean to sound so bold and forward But I thank you in advance For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance It's like I came back in time to tell you thank you You were as beautiful then as you are now Look in the mirror, there is a picture Of you and the man you love For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March(?) And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance I, I, I, I, I I thank you in advance, ooh Oh oh oh
