|
Hey life, look at me
|
I can see the reality
|
'Cause when you shook me, took me, outta 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 find a tender love
|
You don't need to take care of
|
Then you better beware of the happening
|
|
One day you're up
|
When you turn around
|
You find your world 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 the top of the world it happened
|
Suddenly it just happened
|
I saw my dreams torn apart
|
When love walked away from my heart
|
And when you lose a precious love you need to guide you
|
Something happens inside you, the happening
|
|
Now I see life for what it is
|
It's not a dream
|
It's not a bliss
|
It happened to me and it can happen to you
|
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 it starts hurting
|
I saw the light too late
|
When that fickle finger of fate
|
Yeah! It came and broke my pretty balloon
|
I woke up
|
Suddenly I just woke up
|
|
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
|
The happening
|
