Surprise 05:03
lyrics

Before I met you I thought I knew what love was. You swept me off my feet and I got lost in your eyes. The moon danced just for me as I healed from the past. While all isn't perfect with me, I hope this moment lasts. But love... What about love... So scared to trust someone again until you smiled at me... Chorus: You were such a surprise to me, like a precious gift before these eyes. I've felt a new day dawning. It's changed my life. I know that you love me and I'll do the best I can to love you and be the best me that I am. After so much loss, you've given me back my life. Didn't just want to have a husband to be someone's wife. All that I need is to be loved; you've gave me more than I knew was possible. You gently pushed me so that I could be true. In time... Maybe in time... I'll learn to trust others again and heal from the pain... Chorus x 2

You're Wrong [Acoustic] 03:40
lyrics

When I felt your arms around me, a chill went down my spine. I hoped so much you wouldn't stay here with me. Leave the past far behind. Yet you manipulate and complicate every facet of my life. I cannot comprehend these feelings you send that glimmer like a sharpened knife. Chorus: Don't you understand these words? The harsh look from these eyes? You thought you knew just what to do. Face reality; you're wrong. When I heard your words surround me, I wanted to believe you. You twist my words and reasons for your own peace of mind. You only hear what you want to You must be as dense as a cold brick wall. I just can't get away from you. Chorus: Can't you comprehend these words? The gaze I give you from these eyes? I just want to stay away from you. Can't you see that you are wrong? There is a place I know so well, a darkened corner no one knows. Light my incense and crawl into bed. Most days that's how it goes. I can't sleep. I can't eat. You are stuck inside my mind. The phone rings. My brain sings. Why can't I just be blind? Chorus: Can't you comprehend these words? The gaze I give you from these eyes? I just want to stay away from you. Can't you see that you are wrong? Don't you understand these words? The harsh look from these eyes? You thought you knew just what to do. Face reality; you're wrong.

When I saw you on the stairs you took me by surprise. Such a precious smile, such a light in your eyes. Now I try to understand how all of this happened so fast In the blink of an eye it started I hope this love can last. Chorus: I don't know if I'm worthy of your love of all the women in this world. I don't know if I'm worthy of all your time, this scared little girl. Forgive me, baby, if I Find it hard to believe that I am worthy of your love. They say that things like this are a flash in the pan. They'll try to break us down but they'll never understand. The future's wide open it's a whole new world out there. Just touch my hand, take a leap of faith, that you and I can share. Chorus: I don't know if I'm worthy of your love of all the women in this world. I don't know if I'm worthy of all your time, this scared little girl. Forgive me, baby, if I Find it hard to believe that someone like you could want someone like me. I don't know if I'm worthy of your love but I'll try anyhow. I don't know if I'm worthy of your love if time will only allow.

about

I wrote this song about 8 years ago and shelved it away along with a second album I was planning on releasing when the writer's block and social phobia started becoming unbearable. I've been looking through some of those songs to rework or redo, and felt this was the strongest one.

For the first time, I've included acoustic music: a version of the lead track, the song "Worthy?" from my previous album "Wrapped In Music", and a new version of "You're Wrong" from my equals the RAVEN-era music.
