It's cool being the only one, but it's lonely I could have fallen in the stove A thousand times before if only someone had known me They say there's someone for everyone Oh plus the word will be never done When all you need is to be meet half way but nobody tries Don't be surprised Don't be surprised Don't be surprised There are hills and mountains between us Always something 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 that 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 ya'll To know that I don't know it all So when that big o'l smile ends up being just a disguise Don't be surprised Don't be surprised Oh, Lord Don't be surprised Oh, oh, Lord Don't be surprised I said don't be Don't be surprised There's nothing left in here That's surprising baby prising baby
