It Always Comes As A Surprise

Pet Shop Boys · Bilingual [1996]

I can't be cool

or nonchalant

Call me an impulsive fool

You're all I want

You may be right

It's too much, too soon

to talk of love all night

in your bedroom



I don't know why

it always comes as a surprise

to find I'm here with you

You smile and I am rubbing my eyes

at a dream come true



I won't play games

or waste your time

but I won't feel ashamed

to speak my mind

So just relax

Don't question why

For calculated facts

will not apply



I don't know why

it always comes as a surprise

to find I'm here with you

You smile and I am rubbing my eyes

at a dream come true



In my life there've been few

who've affected me the way you do

(You do, you do)



I'll tell no lies

I won't pretend

but if you've a broken heart

I'll help it mend



I don't know why

it always comes as a surprise

to find I'm here with you

You smile and I am rubbing my eyes

at a dream come true

Smile and I am rubbing my eyes

at a dream come true
