Regrets

Sometimes people ask me if there is someting I regret
And my mind suddenly pictures myself in an open casket
There is family around me and a couple of friends too
But there is someone missing and I am not really sure who
Someone who represents an aspect of life I didn't get to explore
My biggest wish unfulfilled that I can not ignore
If I'd die now I know I'd despise my fate
Cause in the casket is someone who's never been asked on a date
Never been in love, never felt the butterflies
I bet someone will dare to say that's a sign that I was wise
But what's life for if not to feel
At least once that crazy thrill
Never had my heart do flips, never missed a beat
Never sang too loud on love songs and played them on repeat
Never has my heart been broken, or not in the way you'd think
Never needed to drown my sorrow in a way too strong drink
Never knew the happiness when your feelings are reciprocated
When you found the right person and it all feels fated
Never got to experience anything regarding romance
Never got asked to be someone's partner so we can slow-dance
Never ate a dinner and drank some wine in the candle light
Never having somebody to hold when I get cold at night
Never just simply cuddled in bed watching a TV show
The feeling of another's lips pressed to mine, guess I' ll never know
Or the things that come next, being touched, feeling the fire
I never got the opportunity to give in to my own desire
Never exchanged dirty texts with someone on the phone
Never felt hands in places that make me moan
There is a whole palette of sensations I'll never get to know
And that realization can bring me nothing but sorrow
So if you ask me now what's my biggest regret
I don't regret what I lived, I regret what I haven't lived yet
