WHAT SURPRISES US
"What shocks us is love." — Alice Walker

We gasp and shake our heads and call it crazy
'Cause we don't remember who we were
Before the birth of time

We gasp and clutch our chests and call it crazy
'Cause we don't remember who we were
Before we all went blind

We're stunned by every kindness, every evidence of good

We left ourselves behind

We gasp and shake our heads and call it crazy
'Cause we don't remember
And what surprises us is love

We gasp and shake our heads and call it crazy
'Cause we don't remember who we are
Since before the birth of time

We gasp and clutch our chests and call it crazy
'Cause we don't remember who we were
Before we lost our minds

We're stunned by every kindness, every evidence of good
We leave ourselves behind

We gasp and shake our heads and call it crazy
How strange that what surprises us is love
