Surprise

It's cool being the only one, but it's lonely

I could have fallen in love a thousand times before

If only someone had known me

They say there's someone for everyone

Oh, but the work will be never done

When all you need is to be met halfway, but nobody tries

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

There are hills and mountains between us

Always somethin to get over

Needless to say, it's a wonderful day

I just noticed how nice it was to know ya

Oh, but be ready to sacrifice

If you love him, you should tell him twice

Because when everything that's alive ultimately dies

Oh, Lord

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Somebody's watchin'

Maybe you want 'em to see you

But with your regrets and secrets

You don't really want them to be you

Well, you can make believe I'm blind

And, for now, I'll be just fine

But when the child grows up to have more than just your eyes

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Now, the ending to every story is most enchanting

Now, whether it's heaven or hell, I wear it well

Please forgive me for rambling

I just wanted y'all to know that I don't know it all

So, when the big ol' smile ends up being just a disguise

Don't be surprised

Don't be surprised

Oh, Lord

Don't be surprised

Oh, Lord

Don't be surprised

I said don't be, don't be surprised

There's nothing like that in here

Surprise you baby, 'prise you, babe
