Surprise surprise I’ve
Had such a hard time
Trying to keep my
Promises

The things I say I
Just don’t do, I
Need some rescue
From myself

A thousand times, a thousand lies
I just don’t understand
Do you believe me anymore?

CHORUS:
I cannot cross this great divide
Without your hand: surprise surprise
All your wonders never cease
To amaze me; even me

I get so nervous
I get so tongue-tied
When I’m around you
My love

You see straight through me
My words are empty
But you still believe my
Promises

Mouthful of fire, I speak desire
And deceitful things
I don’t believe me anymore

CHORUS
