It had to come to us this way. <br />Unexpected love. <br />It had to find us unprepared. <br />Unexpected love. <br />We did not know it had us picked. <br />When unexpected love, <br />Came to visit. <br /> <br />It had to come to us this way. <br />Unexpected love. <br />It had to find us unprepared. <br />Willing to accept, <br />How it crept upon us. <br />When all we felt was tried. <br />Staring in clear skies, <br />Sometimes for that 'one'. <br />That someone special to us to come. <br />And when it is done... <br />We become stunned. <br />It is familiar. <br />As if it begins where it 'had' begun! <br /> <br />It had to come to us this way. <br />Unexpected love. <br />Expecting it returned. <br />As it is to feed what is yearned. <br />Connecting two hearts burning! <br /> <br />When all we felt was tried, <br />Unexpected love... <br />Comes out of hiding! <br />It had to come to us this way. <br />If it had not... <br />We would find reasons, <br />To chase it away! <br />And that is why, <br />It had to come to us <br />This way... <br />Finding us in a receptive display, <br />And giving without thought to run. <br />Hoping love like this did come, <br />To stay! <br /> <br />It had to come to us this way, <br />Unexpected love... <br />Seldom drifts or fades!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
