I´ve practiced this for hours, gone round and round
And now I think that I´ve got it all down
And as I say it louder, I love how it sounds
Cause I´m not taking the easy way out
Not wrappin´ this in ribbons
Shouldn´t have to give a reason why

Chorus
It´s no surprise I won´t be here tomorrow
I can´t believe that I stayed till today
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we´ll find this was no surprise

It came out like a river once I let it out
When I thought that I wouldn´t know how
Held onto it forever, just pushing it down
Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
Shouldn´t have to give a reason why

Chorus
It´s no surprise I won´t be here tomorrow
I can´t believe that I stayed till today
There´s nothing here in this heart left to borrow
There´s nothing here in this soul left to say

Don´t be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
God knows we tried to find an easier way
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we´ll find this was no surprise

Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that´s left your eyes
That´s why this comes as no,
As no surprise

If I could see the future and how this plays out
I bet it´s better than where we are now
But after going through this
It´s easier to see the reason why

Chorus
It´s no surprise I won´t be here tomorrow
I can´t believe that I stayed till today
(stayed till today)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we´ll find this was no surprise

Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that´s left your eyes
But I know in time we´ll find this was no surprise
