there’s my chance


i was early
i was there
the sun was setting
in the evening air

then there was was
all i could see
i played it cool till
she walked up to me

i was ready
she said hi
opened my mouth
but my mouth was dry

there’s my chance
plain as day
there’s my chance
walking away

i was leaving
head hung low
no more words
they’re gone with the flow

she just smiled
she doesn’t know
i fell in battle
to a friendly foe

now i’m alone
she found a friend
ah, the moment passes
but will it ever come again?
