i didn't see it coming

Singer:belle & sebastian

make me dance

i want to surrender

your familiar arms

i remember

we've been going transcontinental

got no car

we just take a rental

but we don't have the money

forget about it

honey

make me dance

i want to surrender

your familiar arms

i remember

everybody's talking about you

every word's a whisper without you

but we don't have the money

forget about it

honey

trouble's never far away when you're around

i didn't see it coming

i'm just not in the running

take me on a train 'cos i'm not flying

i can see the world from a different side

read about us in the morning papers

when we make it alive

i didn't see it coming

i'm just not in the running

and we don't need a lifetime

we're following the right line
