"I Wouldn't Be Surprised" lyrics - BOBBIE GENTRY

BOBBIE GENTRY
"I Wouldn't Be Surprised"
(Henley, Mathis)

If the ground were to freeze
Underneath my feet
In the summertime
I wouldn't be surprised

If the rain from the skies
Should put out my eyes
And make me blind
I wouldn't be surprised

'Cause nothing surprises me
Ever since you said to me good bye

You said forever and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly

Now if the world was to end
Never again to turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised

And if she were to hurt you
I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised

'Cause nothing surprises me
Ever since you said to me good bye

You said forever and I believed
That's the way it would always be
Then she took you away from me
So suddenly

Now if the world was to end
Never again to turn for me
I wouldn't be surprised

And if she were to hurt you
And I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn't be surprised

I'd hold you
And scold you
And tell you I told you
