Surprising Myself Songtext
von Phil Dutra

I′ve been surprising myself
The plans I'm making
I keep surprising myself
The chances I′ve been taking

I get the feeling I'm invincible
A modern Casanova
The kind of rush that's irresistible and
I′m flying high until the
Whole thing starts turning over

Then I′m surprising myself
The thoughts I'm thinking
I keep surprising myself
The depths to which I′m sinking

The slightest movement to the other side
And I'm an instant victim
Of the anxieties I chose to hide
Secretly wired to spring out
When my contentment tripped them


I been surprising myself
I want no more surprises

I′m like a prisoner who's been chained and bound and
Given a clueless riddle
How can a man who won his higher ground
Quickly go from high to low and
Not even glimpse the middle?

I′ve been surprising myself
The hours I'm keeping
I keep surprising myself
The time I don't spend sleeping

A given moment I′m forlorn at heart
And the next my spirits are reeling
Sometimes I feel I′m being torn apart
I guess I wish it could happen somehow
Maybe then I'd know what I′m feeling


I been surprising myself
I keep surprising myself
I keep surprising
I keep surprising myself
I keep surprising myself
I want no more surprises
