Lyrics
Life upon a potterÃ??s wheel
Spin it round Ã??n round
Shaping things just how I want
Not just how I found
Plan your work and work your plan
Take another hill
I used to know a lot about the future
My imagination saw just how life ought to be
Never dawned that someone else had first imagined me
I chose my destinations and I claimed my destiny
And thatÃ??s when you appeared from outa nowhere
Hey surprise!
You just thought you knew
Hey surprise!
What was best for you
Hey surprise!
What you were gonna do
Now you know how little you decide
The best laid plans of mice and men
Are still just plans of mice and men
The finest dreams are ones too big for me to dream at all
But thereÃ??s another Dreamer, see
Who loves to dream sweet dreams for me
Who caters in surprises great and small
I plundered all the classrooms, drew maps from A to Z
DidnÃ??t see that all I saw was all that I could see
I wrapped my future tidy and I stashed it up ahead
And then you just appeared from outa nowhere
Hey surprise!
You just thought you knew
Hey surprise!
What was best for you
Hey surprise!
What you were gonna do
Then She just blew in from outa nowhere
