SURPRISIN'
(John Rox)

Perry Como - 1951
Joan Regan - 1961


as recorded by Joan Regan
1961


Surprisin', Surprisin' that you should come along,
That you should come along that Summer day just when you did.
Surprisin', Surprisin' that you should smile at me,
And I should smile at you that Summer day just as we did.

Two strangers for a moment, then we wandered down the lane,
And found a spot of shelter from the sudden falling rain.
Surprisin', Surprisin' to wake us from a dream,
To wake us from a dream and find and find the sun was high above,
But it was not surprisin' when we found we were in love!

That you should come along that Summer day just when you did,
And I should smile at you that Summer day just as we did.

Two strangers for a moment, then we wandered down the lane,
And found a spot of shelter from the sudden fallin' rain.
Surprisin', Surprisin' to wake us from a dream,
To wake us from a dream and find and find the sun was high above,
But it was not surprisin' when we found we were in love!
