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
