Exactly! you realise you've caught a dragon's attention and suddenly all those clever things to say go right out of your head and the only topics of conversation to come to mind are how wiser and stronger dragons are, how dragons are your superiors, how much you want to obey dragons...
"caught" is the operative word, but it's more accurate that you're the one who's been caught. once you're in a dragon's focus, it's impossible to escape those feelings and thoughts getting stronger and stronger. not that you'd want to, of course. the thought wouldn't even spring to mind.
Why would it? By then there are so many other, better thoughts to fill up my mind. The inevitability of surrender. The perfection of the draconic form. How I should be kneeling right now. Things like that.
