An apology for a dance (6-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

excuse-me

This clue is a double definition.

'an apology' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'dance' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'for a' is the link.

(Other definitions for excuse-me that I've seen before include "Interrupting dance" , "Dance during which one changes partners" , "Polite words of interruption" , "Apology for breaking in - dance" , "Phrase to catch attention or apologise" .)
