Also In Blue - Miss Opportunity

lyrics

Sometimes a girl can change your whole damn life by just existing
Sends you a smile across the room - she looks right into your soul
She has the confidence you lack, and it’s no use resisting.
You may hesitate, but she is not afraid to say hello…

Wake up
It’s time
Are you gonna seize the day or not?

Make up
Your mind -
You’re about to miss your shot.

‘Cause when she knocks,
She’ll take the door clean off the hinges.
She don’t listen to advice -
Miss Opportunity’s not known for knocking twice.

She puts your pleasantries aside like so much window dressing.
There’s more than small talk on her mind, and you can read it on her face.
You got the green light - hit the gas! Don’t sit there second-guessing!
Vacillating over signals you could see from outer space…

Wake up
It’s time
Are you gonna seize the day or not?

Make up
Your mind -
You’re about to miss your shot.

‘Cause when she knocks,
She’ll take the door clean off the hinges.
She don’t listen to advice -
Miss Opportunity’s not known for knocking twice.

The girl’s a sunrise -
If you wait too long, she’ll pass you by,
My friend.

Patience is a virtue,
But indecision only ever hurts you
In the end.

Wake up
It’s time
Are you gonna seize the day or not?

Make up
Your mind -
You’re about to miss your shot.

‘Cause when she knocks,
She’ll take the door clean off the hinges.
She don’t listen to advice -
Miss Opportunity’s not known for knocking twice.
