Verse
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 plus the work will be never done
When all you need is to be met halfway but nobody tries
Chorus
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
Verse
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, and if you love him you should tell him twice
Because when everything that's alive ultimately dies, oh Lord
Chorus
Verse
Somebody's watching, maybe you want them 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
Chorus
Verse
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 that big ol' smile ends up, being a disguise
Chorus
