Surprise Surprise Lyrics
Surprise surprise
I told you lies
I thought the truth would set you free
Surprise surprise
It isn't all as it seems
But who knew you'd wake up from your dreams
If I told you myself
Could've saved you the hell
Now look who's sorry
God I'm so sorry
It was never the right time
I guess it's do or die
Just when you think you've got me figured out
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight
I'm a chamaleon
And every spots hiding my scars
But I will survive
Cause I'll only let you in
When I can be sure of who you are
You can call it a game
But it's me playing safe
God that's so sorry
I'm just sorry
What can I say
It's hard trying to stay alive
Just when you think you've got me figured out
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight
And It's in your eyes
That it's all or nothing
What I can't disguise
Is that you're on to something
If I let myself go
Will you still want me
Will I be enough
The fear of that haunts me
Cause what if you walk away
Just when you think you've got me figured out
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight
I told you lies
I thought the truth would set you free
It isn't all as it seems
But who knew you'd wake up from your dreams
Could've saved you the hell
Now look who's sorry
God I'm so sorry
It was never the right time
I guess it's do or die
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight
And every spots hiding my scars
Cause I'll only let you in
When I can be sure of who you are
But it's me playing safe
God that's so sorry
I'm just sorry
What can I say
It's hard trying to stay alive
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight
That it's all or nothing
What I can't disguise
Is that you're on to something
If I let myself go
Will you still want me
Will I be enough
The fear of that haunts me
Cause what if you walk away
Just when you think you know me well
Baby you've barely even broke the ice
My river runs wide and you're not inside
But you're closer than you were tonight

I think that these lyrics are about someone who can't let anyone get close to her (or him), so anytime someone thinks they've gotten close, they've "barely even broke the ice". The subject of the song gets accused of "playing games", but really is just trying to protect her- or himself.
