She wasn't real pretty
And she wasn't all that smart
But she had a smile
That was like a work of art

Everybody seemed to love her,
But she let nobody in
Oh lord the way i think about her
That should be a sin

When i finally got her alone one night
She confessed her every thought
Said no one likes the girl she is
But you better bet I disagreed

I said:
You might be surprised about the way i think about you
Yeah you might not know that i dream of you each night
I know it's alot, yeah it's something out of nowhere
But it's here, and it's true, and as much as i love you
You might be surprised

Well she could only smile back
Her cheeks a rosy red
That brave young boy that i once was
Was in over his head

She looked at me,
I almost died,
That perfect twinkle in her eyes

And then she said
You might be surprised about the way i think about you
Yeah you might not know that i dream of you each night
I know it's alot, yeah it's something out of nowhere
But it's here, and it's true, and as much as i love you
You might be surprised

Well i can't say i've talked to her much since that night
And i don't think that she thinks of me all that much
But i will always remember when
She told me

You might be surprised about the way i think about you
Yeah you might not know that i dream of you each night
I know it's alot, yeah it's something out of nowhere
But it's here, and it's true, and as much as i love you
You might be surprised

And i couldn't help but think
"Lord, I was surprised"
Yeah, yeah yeah, I was surprised
