Michael Cavanaugh Life Is Surprising
The table's set and covered in white linen
There's a ring in my pocket, and music in the air
Just a few more minutes, and she will be arriving
My hands are shaking, cause I just can't wait
The whole room illuminates as she enters through the doorway
It's just like a spotlight from heaven is shining down
I know she never, never thought this day was coming
Cause I've always said I'd never settle down
Sometimes life is surprising
And people's hearts can change
Commitment doesn't scare me anymore
You know she's waited on me forever
And now I finally know for sure
That life is surprising
And my heart belongs to her
I see her tears as she comes a little closer
She pulls me up before my knee can hit the floor
She says she's sorry but she's fallen for another
She just couldn't wait around for me no more
Sometimes life is surprising
And people's hearts can change
And I'd give anything to keep her here with me
All she wanted was me forever
But she's more than I deserve
Life is surprising,
And my heart belongs to her
Yeah life is surprising
And my heart belongs to her
I should have told her so much sooner that she was all I'd never need
I guess I never thought that she would fall out of love with me
But sometimes life is surprising
And people's hearts can change
And I'd give anything to keep her here with me
All she wanted was me forever
But she's more than I deserve
Life is surprising
And my heart belongs to her
Yeah life is surprising,
And my heart belongs to her
But she's more than I deserve
Life is surprising
And my heart belongs to
Yeah life is surprising,
And my heart belongs to her
