Berikut ini lirik lagu “Taken by Surprise” dari Iron & Wine:

I knew someone long ago

She wasn't there and then she was

That lightning hit the ground without a warning

She would laugh and I would laugh

Somehow that sound became a day

Day turned into night and night to morning

If she ever comes back around for something she forgot

Or maybe take me for a ride

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I knew someone long ago

Although it feels like yesterday

She would look me in the eye and say whatever

I know this kind of moon

It looks too full to come back down

And I've seen a couple suns that set forever

If she ever comes back around

Just to slam an open door

Or to lay her hand in mine

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise

I knew someone long ago

Whether I wanted to or not

We never said goodbye that I remember

She never knew how much she gave

How much she made and left behind

I never knew how much I had to surrender

If she ever comes back around

To see if I'm still sore

Or just make me feel alive

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise anymore

I don't get taken by surprise

I don't get taken by surprise

I don't get taken by surprise
