Unexpected Man

Unexpected Man

If I were the ocean, you’d be the sand

You are the constant so you understand

I am forever changing

The days bring their highs and lows

But you know I’ll always, always find my way home


If I were a tall tree, you’d be the ground

And if I should fall only you’ll hear the sound

And when strong winds blow as they do I may bend and sway

But you know darling this, is where I’ll stay


I’m easily distracted and sometimes I am blind

I listen to the voices that occupy my mind

I say things without thinking and I can disappear for days

But you, you’re the unexpected man

Who loves me anyway.


I know I’m strangely hard to hold on to

Always uneasy, hearing I love you

I know I’m kinda young, a little naïve, don’t know where I am

But like a saint you came marching in

With heaven in your hand


I’m easily distracted and sometimes I am blind

I listen to the voices that occupy my mind

I say things without thinking and I can disappear for days

But you, you’re the unexpected man

Who loves me anyway.
