Anticipation

Lying down on the grass today
Contemplating this girl 
Seeing her sitting right there next to me
My senses caught up in a whirl
Of growing anticipation
Knowing her later I'd see
Telling myself to keep cool and not think
That maybe she'll look right at me

Oh wow, when that happens it's crazy
The butterflies dive bomb inside
When meeting her eyes accidentally 
My smile is so hard to hide
Revealing my innermost feelings
It's impossible not to convey 
That this girl has me captivated
My face is a dead giveaway
