Opportunities are often things you haven't noticed the first time around.

I Really Haven't Got The Time
(Mike Pinder)
You want me to ride
In your car outside
Spend some time with you
Just an hour or two
But I really,
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
I really
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
I really haven't got the time
I'm a busy man
Workin' when I can
I got no time to lend
I got no time, time to spend
Oh no, I really
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
Oh no, I really
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
I really haven't got the time
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Instrumental
I really
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
Oh no, I really
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
I really haven't got the time
Workin' nine 'til five
Got to stay alive (I've got to stay alive)
Find somebody who (Go find somebody who)
Got some time for you (Who's got the time for you)
But I really
No, no, no, no
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
Oh no, I really
No, no, no, no
I really haven't
I really haven't got the time
I really haven't got the time
Really haven't got the time
(Really haven't got time)

Everyone is trying to do something that hasn't been done and that's a really good thing. You can only do so much with a story and some scripts don't give you the opportunities and other scripts do give you the opportunities to do things that haven't been done before.

When You Put Your Hands on Me
When you put your hands on me
When you put your hands on me
I don't know about the travel of time
And I've never seen most of the world
I don't know diving out of the sky
Or living like the diamonds of pearls
See I haven't danced to a musical tune
And I haven't noticed the flowers in bloom
I haven't smiled when alone in my room very much
Then we touched
CHORUS:
I just know when you put your hands on me

Those three chords were part of my life - G, F, Bb - yeh, it is, it is, and I can't help noticing it. But there have been other things nearly as close to it which people haven't noticed, other things we have done.

Winterwood
(mclean)
No one can take your place with me
And time has proven that Im right
Theres no place Id rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
Lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground
And for the first time Ive been seeing
The things Ive never noticed without you
And for the first time Im discovering
The things I used to treasure about you
Birds like leaves on winterwood
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days
Theyve learned to live life as they should
They are at peace with natures ways
You are as natural as the night
And all that springs from you is good
And the children born beneath your light
Are like the birds on winterwood
And for the first time Ive been seeing
The things Ive never noticed without you
And for the first time Im discovering
The things I used to treasure about you

There are lots of other things that I haven't done, places I haven't seen. So eventually I'll have to find time for those things while there still is time.

You're the Only One for Me
vs.1 The first time I saw you,
I didn't know what to do.
Then, I saw the way you looked at me,
And when I came over there, I knew, that,
(Chorus)
The only one,
You're the only one for me.
The only one,
I can rely on, can't you see?
Don't let me lose you,
Do the best that you can do,
'Cause as you see,
You're the only one for me.
vs.2 Out of all the guys there are,
Some are near, and some far.
Haven't you noticed you're one in a million,
And now, I'm fallin' hard, for the fact that,
(Chorus)
(instrumental)
Bridge: I don't think things
Will ever be the same,
But I don't want any of these
Feelings to change,
'Cause no one else can
Make me feel this way!
(Chorus) x 2
Yes, the only one.
Only one.

The La La Song
I won't be the fool in my life
I won't change the rules in my life
In all your silence
I knew it all along
You haven't got the sense to know
what's right from what is wrong
And I really haven't got the time to
tell you about the things that are absurd
Chorus:
Don't fear tomorrow
Don't fear tomorrow
I won't play the fool to your knife, to your knife
You can't change the tune in my sight, in my life
With all you science, I knew it all along
You haven't got the nerve to write the words
within this song
And you really haven't got the time to tell
me why you really are
You really haven't got the time to tell me
why you really are
You really haven't got the time to tell me
why you really are
Chorus:
Don't fear tomorrow
Don't fear tomorrow

I Haven't Forgotten
I haven't forgotten when I meet you first!
I haven't forgotten when I greet you last!
I haven't forgotten your pretty face!
I haven't forgotten your smile and grace!
I haven't forgotten how we started chatting!
I haven't forgotten when we started dating!
I haven't forgotten our last walk together!
I haven't forgotten how I became a loser!
I haven't forgotten how it became too late!
I haven't forgotten when I understood fate!
I haven't forgotten that summer's northwester!
I haven't forgotten and won't forget ever!

I think of these things as obstacles rather than opportunities, because if they were opportunities it means I actually took the business of doing them seriously. To take myself too seriously is the gentle kiss of death.

Places to Hide Pretensions
Are you trying to fit in,
To a box crumbling into pieces?
And all that you wish,
Is to have things done your way?
Has it dawned on you,
Few are still holding onto this point of view?
'Change' is just not a word that is being said.
Everything on Earth is moving ahead.
Except you.
And you refuse to believe it!
Haven't you noticed?
Truth has removed...
Places to hide pretensions.
Well...
Maybe not yours,
Yet!

I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on.

If You've Got Issues You've Got Issues
Aren't you curious and find it strange,
That those who ridicule and complain...
About what others do and/or don't do,
Seem to have no activities at all...
Other than to come together day after day,
To do the same things?
With nothing to show for their efforts wasted?
'No.
I haven't noticed it.
I do my best to keep busy.
I don't take time watching what others do.
And where are you to observe this...
On a regular and daily basis.'
I'm..uh...I...well...
I asked you the question.
'I understood your question perfectly.
But what I don't understand...
Is 'how' and 'what' THEY do,
Has any connection to you? '
I...uh...well...I'm...
I've got to go.
It is difficult to have a conversation,
With somebody like you...
Who can't answer a simple question.
It's not complicated.
If you've got issues you've got issues.
Avoiding what they are wont solve them.
Especially to judge others.
'I agree with you.
And IF you have to go,
You have to go.
There was a time I'd wake up in the morning,
Confused and complex myself.
Until I self examined.'
Yeah.
I can see that.
Well I hope things work out for you.
Try not to be so negative.
'And...
Try to keep what we discussed,
To yourself, okay? '
No problem.
None at all.
I wont tell a soul.

There's more to anybody. Just because you haven't noticed it, that's your problem, that's not mine.
Old Man Time
The first shades appear noticed
Obvious as the sun and the moon
High above the grounds of the earth
Nature taking effect at its worst
Alas once upon a time twas a blessing
I know it will never be the same
For now I am a changed man
Realizing wasted opportunities
Bereft of the youth stolen away
As predicted by old man time
Feeling everything slowly slip away
thinking of memories that never was
for all those that are remaining
eventually they will be lost forever
lost like the ballad of old bards

Next Time You Talk
Don't think
You've kept it quiet
Or that I
Cannot hear
I know every word
You've said
Don't think
I haven't noticed
The snide looks
Or glares
I am not stupid
I know what you've been doing
So next time
You talk behind my back
Feel free to
Kiss
My
Ass
Love,
Autumn

The One
'Come over here' he said
'Let's you and me
talk private.
I've noticed you
noticing me
and I wonder if
that is illusion
and am I making it up
or if it is true
and you did
notice me.
If not fine
I'm gone.
If so
let's talk.
What is the truth?
She:
'Yes I noticed you-
I saw you;
I mean
but that is all-
I noticed'
He: 'Well what did you think of me
when you noticed me?
Did you like me? '
She: ,
'Like you?
I don't know you'
.
'Well what did you think.
Well I thought you, , , ,
Actually I didn't
I wasn't thinking
I was just noticing?
'
Ok, nothing
no spark?
'No, no spark.'
In my twenties i would look into every
face and ask
are you my Future One?
And each face I peered into
would be examined and evaluated
and ultimately graded
and done within 3 seconds.
But if one
noticed me
noticing
I would end up
in conversations
like the above one.
