Lyrics
These tears appeared so unexpected, I never realized you meant so much to me...
I never thought about it, just took it all for granted,
surprise, surprise, the party's over.
Each day has brought with it a lesson, a lesson only you could share. You never thought about it, just took it all for granted...
Surprise, surprise, the party's over.
I wish you all the finest gifts the world can offer
I wish you joy and peace and love forever after
I wish you happiness and kindness as you've shown me
I wish you'd stay, just one more day...
For all the times you made me smile, for all the laughter,
For all your words of wisdom, I'll always remember... for every moment that you gave me
When storms broke through you came, I wish you'd stay, just one more day.
These tears appeared so unexpected, I never realized you meant so much to me;
I never thought about it, just took it all for granted... surprise, surprise, the party's over.
Lyrics, music, arrangement: Gabriella J Paolini.
