you’ve given all you had
you felt the fall, so sad
and suddenly you lose the veil of your emotion
it lifted clean away
you see a brand new day
you journeyed from afar
you’re staring at those stars
they’re blazing down like harbingers of hope, and
under a sapphire sky
you know that you can fly
it’s unexpected magic
unexpected mystery
when the unexpected happens,
it’s a gift, and
unexpectedly
so you’ve been dancing now
learning to get around
learning that everything is everything in motion
the key is in your hand
you finally understand
the unexpected magic
unexpected mystery
when the unexpected happens,
it’s a gift and
unexpectedly
honey you can hold on
honey you are so strong
it doesn’t have to be complicated all of the time
love rules the kingdom
there’s only freedom
it’s up to you to go and shine
you’re running to the shore
thirsty for even more
you’re going in, you are the ocean
it’s unexpected magic
unexpected mystery
when the unexpected happens,
it’s a gift and
unexpectedly
