The Happening

Hey, life, look at me, I can see the reality

'Cause when you shook me, took me out of my world

I woke up, suddenly, I just woke up to the happening

When you find that you left the future behind

'Cause when you got a tender love you don't

Take care of, then you better beware of the happening

One day you're up (one day you're up)

You turn around (then you turn around)

You find your world (you find your world)

Is tumbling down (is tumbling down)

It happened to me, and it can happen to you

I was sure, I felt secure, until love took a detour

Yeah, riding high on top of the world

It happened, suddenly, it just happened

I saw my dreams fall apart when love walked away from my heart (hear, yeah)

And when you lose that precious love you need to guide you

Something happens inside you, the happening

Now I see life (now I see life) for what it is (for what it is)

It's not all dreams (it's not all dreams) ooh

It's not all bliss (it's not all bliss)

It happened to me, and it can happen to you once

Ooh, and then it happened

Ooh, and then it happened

Ooh, and then it happened

Ooh, and then it happened

Is it real, is it fake, is this game of life a mistake?

'Cause when I lost the love I thought was mine

For certain, suddenly, I started hurting

I saw the light too late, when that fickle finger of fate

Yeah, came and broke my pretty balloon

I woke up, suddenly, I just woke up to the happening

So sure, I felt secure, until love took a detour

'Cause when you got a tender love you don't

Take care of, then you better beware of
