I Wouldn't Be Surprised
If the ground were to freeze
Underneath my feet
In the summertime
I wouldn't be surprised
If the rain from the skies
Should put out my eyes
And make me blind
Wouldn't be surprised
'Cause nothin' surprises me
Ever since you said to me
"Goodbye"
You said "Forever" and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly
Now, if the world was to end
Never again
To turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised
'Cause nothin' surprises me
Ever since you said to me
"Goodbye"
You said "Forever" and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly
Now, if the world was to end
Never again
To turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
And I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised
I'd hold you
And scold you
And tell you
I told you
I told you
Underneath my feet
In the summertime
I wouldn't be surprised
If the rain from the skies
Should put out my eyes
And make me blind
Wouldn't be surprised
'Cause nothin' surprises me
Ever since you said to me
"Goodbye"
You said "Forever" and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly
Now, if the world was to end
Never again
To turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised
'Cause nothin' surprises me
Ever since you said to me
"Goodbye"
You said "Forever" and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly
Now, if the world was to end
Never again
To turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
And I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised
I'd hold you
And scold you
And tell you
I told you
I told you
