Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was only a smile
But my heart, it went wild
I wasn't expecting that
Just a delicate kiss
Anyone coulda missed
I wasn't expecting that
Did I misread the sign?
Your hand slipped into mine
I wasn't expecting that
You spent that night in my bed
You woke up and you said
Well, I wasn't expecting that
[Verse 2]
I thought love wasn't meant to last
Thought you were just passing through
If I ever get the nerve to ask
What did I get right to deserve somebody like you?
I wasn't expecting that
I wasn't expecting that
[Verse 3]
It was only a word
It was almost misheard
I wasn't expecting that
But it came without fear
A month turned into a year
I wasn't expecting that
[Verse 4]
I thought love wasn't meant to last
Honey, I thought you were just passing through
If I ever get the nerve to ask
What did I get right to deserve somebody like you?
I wasn't expecting that
[Verse 5]
Ooh, isn't it strange?
How life can be changed
In the flicker of the sweetest smile
We were married in spring
You know I wouldn't change a thing
Without that innocent kiss
What a life I'd have missed
[Verse 6]
If you'd not took a chance on a little romance
When I wasn't expecting that
Time doesn't take long
Three kids up and gone
I wasn't expecting that
Then the nurses, they came
Said, it's come back again
I wasn't expecting that
Then you closed your eyes
You took my heart by surprise
I wasn't expecting that
[Verse 7]
I wasn't expecting that
I wasn't expecting that
