Quite unexpectedly, a lovely face you see
And suddenly pop goes your heart
Without a warning word, a charming voice is heard
And suddenly pop goes your heart
When life is just a bowl of withered fruit
So sour and dry
You just want to cry
Then, presto, change, and you're in love
And life is a cherry pie
You don't amount to much
Then someone's hand you touch
And suddenly pop goes your heart
The clouds of grey roll away
On the day your love dreams get their start
But if you chance to quarrel
You say goodbye and then
Quite unexpectedly that lovely face you see
And suddenly pop goes your heart again
