Surprise Surprise
Céline Dion Lyrics

Surprise surprise
I am about to reveal a shocking truth.

I told you lies
I deceived you with falsehoods.

I thought the truth would set you free
I believed that telling the truth would help you.

Surprise surprise
I am revealing more unexpected information.

It isn't all as it seems
Things are not what they appear to be.

But who knew you'd wake up from your dreams
I did not expect you to realize the truth.

If I told you myself
If I had been honest with you.

I could've saved you the hell
I could have prevented your suffering.

Now look who's sorry
I now regret my actions.

God, I'm so sorry
I am deeply remorseful.

It's never the right time
Timing is always a challenge.

I guess it's do or die
I feel desperate and must take action.

Just when you think you've got me figured me out
Just when you believe you know me completely,

Just when you think you know me well
Just when you think you are familiar with me,

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice
You have only just begun to get to know me.

My river runs wide
I have many emotions flowing within me.

You're not inside
You have not yet entered into my inner world.

But you're closer than you were
You are making progress in our relationship.

Tonight, I'm a chameleon
I am being adaptable and changing my behavior to fit the situation.

And every spot's hiding my scars
I am concealing my emotional wounds and vulnerabilities.

But I will survive
I will persevere through this challenging time.

Cause I'll only let you in
I will only allow you access to my true self if I trust you.

When I can be sure of who you are
Only when I am confident in your character.

And you can call it a game
You may view our relationship as a competition.

But it's me playing safe
I am being cautious in protecting myself from getting hurt.

What can I say?
I do not know how to express myself.

I thought you'd want to stay alive
I believed that you would prefer to avoid emotional pain.

And it's in your eyes
I can perceive from your gaze.

That is all or nothing
You are only interested in a fully committed relationship.

What I can disguise is that you're on to something
I cannot conceal the fact that you have an intuition about me.

I let myself go, will you still want me?
If I reveal my true self, will you still accept me?

Will I be enough?
Am I capable of meeting your expectations?

The fear of that haunts me
I am worried and anxious about being rejected.

'Cause what if you walk away?
I am afraid that you will abandon me.

You were tonight, tonight, tonight
You were engaged with me in the present moment.

You were tonight, tonight, tonight
You were in tune with me in the here and now.

Surprise, surprise
This revelation may shock you once again.
