We Weren’t Expecting You


“We Weren’t Expecting You”

Love is strong,
Yeah, it conquers all.
Like a tree left hungry,
As the leaves drop in the fall.

A knock on the door,
Fixing dinner on the phone not sure what to do.
End the call, turn down the stove and answer the door.
Oh he’s just outside, mowing the lawn, we weren’t expecting you.

No, no you’re mistaken.
Why would he lie down out there?
I’ll go and get him,
You can wait there, in that empty chair.

I’ll be right back.
I’ll get him, your mistaken, it's true.
Have a seat, I’ll be right back.
We weren’t expecting you.
