Billy Joel - Surprises lyrics

rate me

Don't get excited, don't say a word

Nobody noticed, nothing was heard

It was committed discreetly

It was handled so neatly

And it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

Break all the records, burn the cassettes

I'd be lying if I told you that I had no regrets

There were so many mistakes

And what a difference it makes

But still it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

I said it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

Don't look now but you have changed

Your best friends wouldn't tell you

Now it's apparent, now it's a fact

So marshal your forces for another attack

You were so young and naive

I know it's hard to believe

But now it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

No it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

What has it cost you, what have you won

The sins of the fathers are the sins of the sons

It was always within you. it will always continue

But it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know

I said it shouldn't surprise you at all, you know
