Unexpected

My eyes expect the frequent tears, my heart expects to always fear
That I’ve grown accustomed to
The joy of light is custom sealed,
Giving the darkness its appeal
Suddenly one star comes smiling through
I never expected to fall for you

I always seem to hide my heart to keep myself from falling apart
As most people seem to do
Highs offer happiness, far too much
Then buried so low for even me to touch
All the highs and lows you’ve seen me through
I never expected to fall for you

I know there’s no mistake I’m making, a love so true I’m always anticipating
How I got here, I have no clue
This heart’s a stranger to this new feeling
The thoughts and secrets its freely revealing
In spite of all that one thing is true
I never expected to fall for you

I find it hard to believe this reckless heart could ever conceive
A love so fine and true
I’m telling you what I’ve been hiding
While inside my heart is fighting
Throughout my days so black and blue
I never expected to fall for you

Nothing about this scares me; I’m happy, joyous, somehow wary
It’s a feeling I’m not used to
Each day my love for you grows stronger
I won’t try to hide it any longer
I didn’t have to wait for any cue
I never expected to fall for you

You’re the one thing I got right, the only one I let inside
Walls built high, you broke through
You’re the most amazing guy I’ve ever met
The love I have for you is one I won’t forget
Although the time was very few
I never expected to fall for you

You’re the one I adore, of you one thing I implore
Listen to these words, they’re true
Most say that good things take time
But I fell for you without reason or rhyme
At this point, there’s not much I can do
Because I am so TERRIBLY in love with you.
