it was only a smile but my heart it went wild i wasn't expecting that just a dell cat kiss anyone could have missed i wasn't expecting that did i misread the sign your hand slipped into mine i wasn't expecting that you spent the night in my bed you woke up and you said well, i wasn't expecting that i thought love wasn't meant to last i thought you were just passing through if i ever get the nerve to ask

deserve somebody like you i wasn't expecting that it was only a word it was a thing i wasn't expecting that it came without fear and eight months turned into a year and i wasn't expecting that i thought love wasn't meant to last honey, i just thought you were passing through if i ever get the nerve to ask what the did i get right to deserve somebody like you

isn't it strange how a life can be changed in the flicker of the sweetest smile we were married in spring you know i wouldn't change a thing without that innocent kiss what a life i'd have missed if you had not took a chance on a little romance when i wasn't expecting that time doesn't take long, three kids up and gone i wasn't expecting that when the nurses they came, said it's come back again i wasn't expecting that then you closed your eyes, you took my heart by surprise
