I Didn’t Hear That Coming Lyrics by Dan Penn

Living on Mercy

2020

I didn't hear that comin'
I didn't see the signs
Never expect to hear you say
That you'd be mine
It took me by surprise
It set my heart to hummin'
You told me you loved me
I didn't hear that comin'
I never popped the question
I never took the chance
I was even too nervous, too shy
To ask you to dance
Back in high school
You were every boy's dream
I never thought I'd hear you say
You wanted me
I didn't hear that comin'
I didn't hear that comin'
All of a suddеn here you are tonight
Unbеlievable and out of sight
I somehow won your heart without a word
You've been tryin' to say you love me, I finally heard
All of a sudden here you are tonight
Unbelievable and out of sight
I somehow won your heart without a word
You've been tryin' to say you love me, I finally heard
I never heard that comin'
I've been walkin' blind
The thought that you'd ever love me
Never crossed my mind
It hit me like a train
With the diesels hummin'
You told me you loved me
I didn't hear that comin'
You told me you loved me
I didn't hear that comin'
(Didn't hear a thing)
Woo-woo, woo
