lyrics

Never had a sweet tooth
That’s the bitter truth
Turned away a dozen loves
In my long lost youth

Too serious for confectionary,
I rarely got a taste
Regretted in a hurry
Repented in haste

I wouldn’t have expected
My tastes now to alter
But when the light caught your hair
My resolve would falter

Even a sour flavour
Might turn sweet some day
You turned in my direction
And smiled at me that way

Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes
Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes

By the time we met
It no longer seemed strange
How things that were set
Could suddenly change

Memories are false
Excuses are not reasons
Love sweeps all away
Abandons the seasons

Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes
Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes

African sun
And European skies
You brought me A truth
After a life of lies

By the time I blinked
I had seen enough
One minute I was lonely
The next in love

Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes
Oh, oh what a surprise
I’m in love with
The Girl with the Caramel Eyes
