And as the clock strikes three But no afternoon tea This is morning All wealth yawning And you dreamÉ (repeat) Oblivious to my scheme WhoÕll set the test For your Unexpected Guest And as your Unexpected Guest Your hospitality Was the best Oh Englishman Your castle threatened Your privacy wrecked Your wealth lessened And still he dreamsÉ A midnight surprise Only for you eyes Your Unexpected Guest Oh but I could have touched your shoulder If I were bolderÉ The stranger in the bedroom The air would turn colder.
