Surprise Surprise

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Surprise, surprise I understand your shock at getting wise I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid 'Cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did I knew what was wrong with me long before you did [Chorus 1] I've spent my whole adult life worrying That the world would find me out before too long I faint, I fail, my vision starts to blurrying So just stay strong or get strong [Verse 2] Surprise, surprise Look into these never-loving eyes You were feeling safe while I was feeling lonely You thought that you had known me but I wish that you had only Known just what was wrong with me long before you did [Chorus 2] A life on the run from the truth is a gun With its barrel pointed deep down in your throat And one day you'll say enough of this self-defeating stuff One false move, that's all she wrote [Bridge] And on those mornings when I'm lying In our bed alone and realize I'm old My mind begins to wish that I was flying It's not my mind, it's my soul [Verse 1] Surprise, surprise I understand your shock at getting wise I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid 'Cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did I knew what was wrong with me long before you did [Refrain] I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
