The Happening lyrics

by

Smokey Robinson


[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Once
Ooh, and then it happened
Ooh, and then it happened
Ooh, and then it happened
Ooh, and then it happened

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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
