lyrics

Sometimes it's only
That you have to sit down
On a silent evening
When you're all on your own

Sometimes it is just that
Something strange is happening
And the music starts playing
Again in your head

And you let the words out
Now again your thoughts are flowing
Surprise, surprise, surprise
You're not yet dried out

Sometimes it takes only
A small glass of wine
On a lonely evening
When she left you at home

Sometimes you just need
An old photograph
And a sentimental mood
And you know what comes out

And you wonder where the words
Have been all the past year
Surprise, surprise, surprise
You're not yet dumb
