| 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 got a tender love you don’t 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 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 of dreams, it’s not of bliss. | 
| It happened to me and it can happen to you | 
| And then it happened. | 
| Oo, and then it happened. | 
| Oo, 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 hurtin'. | 
| 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. | 
| The Happening. |
