No Surprise...


I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
And now I think that I've got it all down
And as I say it louder, I love how it sounds
'Cause I'm not taking the
easy way out
Not wrapping this in ribbons

Shouldn't have to give a reason why

It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow

I can't believe that I stayed 'til today

Yeah, you and I will be a tough act to follow

But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

It came out like a river once I let it out

When I thought that I wouldn't know how

Held onto it forever, just pushing it down

Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons

Shouldn't have to give a reason why


It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow

I can't believe that I stayed 'til today

There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
There's nothing
here in this soul left to say

Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow

God knows we tried to find an easier way

Yeah, you and I will be a tough act to follow

But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise


Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
That's why this comes as no, as
no surprise

If I could see the future and how this plays out

I bet it's better than where we are now

But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why


It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow

I can't believe that I stayed 'til today

Yeah, you and I will be a tough act to follow

But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

The kiss goodnight, it comes with me

Both wrong and right, our memories

The whispering before we sleep, just one more thing that you can't keep

Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
