mahalia - surprise me lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m waking up and you just fell asleep
it’s funny ’cause you think i’m meant to be
used to this
if only you knew what you are to me
you’d understand why this is hard
i’m new to this
you say you don’t like feeling solo
we used to just be different postcodes
now it’s time zones
you say “don’t wanna live this life through photos”
you say “we’re a no-go”
that’s a low blow
[pre-chorus]
you know i hate when you’re not around
(that’s a low blow)
promised when i land you’d hold me down
[chorus]
i thought that you would surprise me
get on a plane and come find me
but instead you suppressed me
i guess it isn’t surprising
i thought that you would surprise me (surprise)
get on a plane and come find me (come find)
but instead you suppressed me (suppressed)
i guess it isn’t surprising
[verse 2]
i fell asleep and you’re just waking up
i’ve had enough of always waiting up
for you
that doesn’t mean that i am done with us
i can’t believe you say you’re done with us
ooh
you say you’re ready to go solo
i know we’re more than different postcodes
but it’s just time zones
you say “don’t wanna live this life through phone calls”
you don’t say what you want though
so how should i know?
[pre-chorus]
you know i hate when you’re not around
[chorus]
i thought that you would surprise me
get on a plane and come find me
but instead you suppressed me
i guess it isn’t surprising
i thought that you would surprise me (surprise)
get on a plane and come find me (come find)
but instead you suppressed me (suppressed)
i guess it isn’t surprising
[bridge]
so you wanna come to my show now
maybe i won’t even show up for you
say you love me but you don’t now
i’m not scared to say that i do
and you should put your phone down
’cause, baby, i’m not gonna pick up for you
and that might surprise you
[chorus]
i thought that you would surprise me
get on a plane and come find me
but instead you suppressed me
i guess it isn’t surprising
i thought that you would surprise me (thought you would, i thought you would)
(surprise)
get on a plane and come find me (thought you would, i thought you would)
(come find)
but instead you suppressed me (suppress)
i guess it isn’t surprising
