She wakes me up in the middle of the night

When I'm rolling over - rolling over

She keeps on asking is there something on my mind - I know

She's getting close just a little too closer - and yet

Secrets are hard form me to hide

'cos I never know what she might find

Telling her lies

Taken by surprise - taken by surprise yeah



She calls me up every minute of the day

It's like she's checking me over - always over my should and then

We talk and talk until there's nothing left to say

But she won't leave me alone every night

She never says what's on her mind

And the way it looks - well I know she ain't blind

Telling her lies

Taken by surprise - taken by surprise yeah



You know this game is the same

All the world over

But no one laughs when they're taking the blame

Over your should - taken by surprise



Can't close my eyes in case I talk in my sleep

Ooh I gotta lotta secrets that I know I wanna keep yeah

And she might even know what's going on

And it's all just an act when she says nothing's wrong

Like a disguise

Taken by surprise - taken by surprise
