The tears of a clown at a military parade
The clouds moving for the sun
Live and let live on Christmas Day
Stop fighting and have some fun
I'm surprised
That your tenderness
Shines
Through your bitterness
I'm surprised
To see you smile
You're so alive
I hope this stays for a while
So many paths that you can take
You can open up and just let go
You can tear down the wall and show your face
Surprise us and say that you're okay, okay?
I'm surprised
That your tenderness
Shines
Through your bitterness
I'm surprised
To see you smile
You're so alive
I hope this stays for a while
I'm surprised
To look into your eyes
And see the person you're meant to be
I'm surprised
That your tenderness
Shines
Through your bitterness
I'm surprised
To see you smile
You're so alive
I hope this stays for a while
