- UNEXPECTED
-
- 1.
- You have found on the way an
unexpected lover,
- and she's more like a sliver
than a dream,
- and the more it hurts, the more
you look for words
- that will tell this creature
what you mean.
-
- 2.
- I have gone down this way. I
know it isn't easy.
- When you get to the floor it
breaks your heart;
- but you have no choice once
you're sick of your own voice,
- and the unexpected lover plays
her part.
-
- Chorus.
- She's got a room down the
hall.
- You hadn't noticed her at
all.
- Soon you're trying to
place
- just where you saw that
face,
- that echo of a whisper from the
wall.
-
- 3.
- She is hollow in the voice and
cold in her devotion.
- You know not to ask her where
she's from.
- In the cellar of the night, she
is your only light,
- and she fades into day when
daylight comes.
