He wants to know how this love could begin
He wants to know how this woman could meet him
When he walked around the block, on the leash his small dog
The same run, the same move everyday

She was standing alone on this corner
The spring temperature is getting warmer
In her hands a bouquet, he has nothing to say
But " thanks for the flowers my girl

Should I write you a love song about love is a sweet surprise
Should I write you a sweet song my love is the only thing I realize"
And if this lady keeps standing there he would tell a lot more things
About sunshine - and love is a sweet surprise

all day long he sends her pricey roses
from now on he forgets (his) midlife crisis
and the weather is fine, see the stars everytime
and he is standing in his own world

he says some people need a whole lifetime
he says some people's life is like a crime
without love on their side. He is not too proud
to treat her like his own princess

"should I tell you a story about love is a sweet surprise
should I tell you about glory, when I see love in your eyes"
It seems that he feels like a teenage boy who experiences his love
There ain't no problems -and love is a sweet surprise

Bridge:
Mr. Cooper's lucky star begins to burn out
And his lady's love a 360° turnaround
Love can change and nothing lasts forever
a time comes they're no longer together..........

so his heart is wounded but it beats on
so he tries to write another sad song
about the dark sides of life and the sadness inside
It's another cold and rainy day

I will wait here under this street light
'till your grief has stopped and you feel alright
and we move trough the bars 'til the sun drive the stars
away and the morning begins

so we could write some love songs - about love is no sweet surprise
so we could write some cool songs - marijuana to legalize
come on enjoy your simple life it's spring it's summertime
and forget that your love was no sweet surprise
