It was only a smile
but my heart it went wild
I wasn't expecting that
Just a delicate kiss
anyone could've 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
"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
what did I get right
to deserve
somebody like you?
I wasn't expecting that
it was only a word
it was almost misheard
I wasn't expecting that
But it came without fear
a month turned
into a year
I wasn't expecting that
I thought love
wasn't meant to last
honey I thought you
were just passing through
If I ever get the nerve
to ask what did I get
right to deserve
somebody like you?
I wasn't expecting that
Oh 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'd not took a chance
on a little romance
well 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
I wasn't expecting that
