Lyrics

The Wallflower

Bought a new dress, one strand of pearls and a new pair of shoes
Curls in my hair, hint of perfume, put on a smile or two,
Maybe tonight, someone will notice and give me a chance,
Someone will ask this little Wallflower to dance...

He'd take my hand on to the floor, then to the balcony,
Under the moon, touching my cheek, he'd steal a kiss from me,
Then speak my name, in but a whisper, in love's true romance,
That's how he'd ask this little Wallflower to dance.

I close my eyes and I see him, he's holding me tight,
I close my eyes and we're dancing...all through the night.

Yet here I sit, sipping on punch, nobody even knows,
That I am here, and that at twelve, back to my home I'll go...
Maybe one day, someone will notice and give me a chance...
Someone will ask this little Wallflower to....dance.
