A Chance Untaken

 

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

She had brunette hair and a pair of brown eyes,

She had a slim figure and a contagious smile,

And I liked her.

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

Her laughs light up the room,

Her voice lifts all of my gloom,

And I liked her.

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

I noticed she loved singing.

She hums the day away,

And I liked her.

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

She wasn’t the best dancer that you could find,

Yet she taps her tiny feet like she’s the greatest,

And I liked her.

 

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

My whole world was black and white,

She was the one who brought color,

And I liked her.

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

She revolved her life around me,

Making some plans together with me,

And I liked her.

There was once a chance I didn’t take,

I didn’t take the chance

To tell her that I

Only like her.
