Big Surprise

You ain't the girl I've been
Looking for
You ain't short on smarts or style
No, you're much too beautiful
And you're so much more
Well, I've been looking
For quite a while

For you, where ya been
My lovely 'nado whirlwind
My heart's
Like a fish
Flip-flopping all abandoned
Maybe it's your smile
Touching all the while
I'm lost in your eyes

Big surprise.

I've never seen you be
'tall unkind
'Tain't in your nature to cuss
Sanctuary, you're my heart
Ne'er thought I'd find
My soul is singing,
So let me fuss

O'er you, where ya been
My lovely 'nado whirlwind
My heart's
Like a fish
Flip-flopping all abandoned
Maybe it's your smile
Touching all the while
I'm lost in your eyes

Big surprise.

Don't ever stop, my love,
Being you
You're much too good for my world
You're the light in my blue eyes
I must be the fool
Thinking my dead heart
Wouldn't rise, girl,

For you, where ya been
My lovely 'nado whirlwind
My heart's
Like a fish
Flip-flopping all abandoned
Maybe it's your smile
Touching all the while
I'm lost in your eyes

Big surprise.
