No Surprise

No Surprise lyrics

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



I fell for this song the I first heard it. Daughtry alone, stands as my favorite American Idol participant, imagine teaming up with Chad Kroeger of Nickelback to write this song. Its sounds like one of Nickelback singles, but with Daughtry's voice, it was a perfect mix.

In simple form of my own words, this is what i think it means..

This song says alot about a broken relationship
that is not really working out
and wasn't really suppose to be.

The only solution was breaking up,
though,
it was already predicted
this decision was going to take place.

Alone, this song stands out among the rest I heard this particular year. I'm actually quite surprise how they put such a situation unto a written song.

I can go crazy hearing this song on the Radio, Tv, Mp3 and tend to sing along! :)
Chris you rock!! :P

In time we'll find this was no surprise
