Took Me By Surprise - Jill Barber

It took me by surprise

However could I know

That one look into your eyes I could never let you go

Lovers, you can never tell

I was never trying to fall in love when I fell

It took me by surprise

You caught me off my guard

You knocked me off my feet

When I finally came around

My heart declared defeat

Lovers you cannot predict

I was never trying to fall in love when I slipped

I took me by surprise

First time I met you

I could hardly believe

Couldn’t forget you

But I had to let you leave

Second time I saw you

I had to ask

For knowing what my heart knew there was no turning back

Lovers be humble

I wasn’t trying to fall in love

Lovers they stumble

It took me by surprise
