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, then 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 top of the world

It happened, suddenly it just happened

I saw my dreams fall apart

When love walked away from my heart

And when you lose that precious love you need

To guide you

Something happens inside you, the happening

Now I see life for what it is

It's not all dreams, ooh, 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
