[Verse 1]
Pardon me, is your love taken?
Hope I haven't been mistaken
Thinking you might love me
You might love me

[Verse 2]
Now here's my invitation
I have made the reservation
For an evening for two
An evening with you

[Chorus 1]
But if you say this can't be
Then all I can say is
"Won't you pardon me?"

[Verse 3]
I don't think that I can take it
If you say that you can't make it
This evening at eight
Please don't be late

[Verse 4]
I know that you're admired
But don't say that you are tired
And you'd like to decline
Till some other time
[Chorus 2]
I think that you should know
The way that I feel, yes
I love you
How nice it would be to spend
An evening alone with you

[Flute Solo]

[Chorus 2]
I think that you should know
The way that I feel, yes
I love you
How nice it would be to spend
An evening alone with you

[Verse 1]
Pardon me, is your love taken?
Hope I haven't been mistaken
Thinking you might love me
You might love me

[Verse 2]
Now here's my invitation
I have made the reservation
For an evening for two
An evening with you
[Verse 1]
Pardon me, is your love taken?
Hope I haven't been mistaken
Thinking you might love me
You might love me

[Verse 2]
Now here's my invitation
I have made the reservation
For an evening for two...
