Didn't See That Coming { late night jazz cover }

V5.5

[Instrumental/vocalise intro] [Verse 1] I sat down with myself today To have the talk we always miss I thought I knew the words I'd say I wrote them down — I had a list But somewhere in the middle of the sentence A voice I didn't recognise Spoke a name I thought I'd buried in a sentence Behind a wall of compromise [Chorus] And I didn't see that coming Not a single sign I thought I knew this feeling But it wasn't mine I didn't see that coming It hit me from inside Like a door I opened To a room I tried to hide [Verse 2] I asked myself a question That I'd asked a hundred times But this time I listened And the answer crossed the line It wasn't clever, wasn't new It was quiet, plain, and true It said: "You're not lost, you're just not found You've been waiting for permission to get out" [Chorus] And I didn't see that coming Not a single sign I thought I knew this feeling But it wasn't mine I didn't see that coming It hit me from inside Like a door I opened To a room I tried to hide [Instrumental interlude] [Bridge] I didn't come here to be saved I came to meet the part of me That never learned to behave That never learned to leave quietly [Final chorus] And I didn't see that coming I never do The best words come From the parts of you That don't pretend That don't perform They just arrive Inside a storm [Instrumental/vocalise outro] * * * * * * * Lyrics by Suno creator, BritPap
