lyrics

Absolute Surprise

She talked till she was silly / Going on about a love she never had
Well imagine that there’s nothing / And that no one can ever feel that bad
She seemed so lonely / Beaten down by the forces of her job
Resigned to the comfort that stability lent to this façade

A part of me loves her / It’s a part of me that never fails to rise
Rise up like the morning sun / And sink down in an absolute surprise

Well it simmers when she tells me of the men she welcomed in delight
You see I loosen up my grip on her / It’s a feeling that’s pretty hard to fight
I learned a little cruelness goes a long way to bringing out the truth
For when jealously arises / There is nothing but a feeling that can soothe

A part of me loves her / It’s a part of me that never fails to rise
Rise up like the morning sun / And sink down in an absolute surprise

She looked me in the eye and declared, ‘these are the years I will squander
Like a pauper I will roam / And I will pillage every man that I am fond of’
She said, ‘If you ever leave me honey won’t you please keep a picture near your heart’
I said, ‘I will do much more that / I will dream that we have never been apart’

A part of me loves her / It’s a part of me that never fails to rise
Rise up like the morning sun / And sink down in an absolute surprise

Leave me all alone / Like a star shining bright in seclusion
If you loved me you would know that just a touch would send me off into confusion
As she kissed me on the cheek she whispered something funny I recall
She said, ‘Aren’t we all just waiting for some lover to take another fall’

A part of me loves her / It’s a part of me that never fails to rise
Rise up like the morning sun / And sink down in an absolute surprise
