Missed Opportunity

If a picture is worth a thousand words
Then seeing you in person was worth a million
From the moment I looked into your eyes
The chills could’ve turned me reptilian
Never before has a room gone so dark
With the spotlight pointed directly on you
I knew that the best seat in the house
Was where ever you were in clear view
Can’t remember a time, I've been so thrown
Like the mechanical bull in a bar
But truth is I didn’t gain my composure
Until I turned the keys to my car
My mind started up with the engine
Going full speed, my mouth sat in park
Had I opened it to speak earlier
Maybe you, I could’ve had till dark
So until I’m given another chance
To try and capture your heart
I will suffer with remembering
The day I couldn't get my lips to part
