The Happening
Lyrics:
Walkin' alone down the street today
I never expected to see such a beautiful face,
It so happens they walk up to me
And they ask me if I can remember their name
It takes a second but I've got it down
I just had to remember when they came around
An acquaintance of mine, not another runaway
I get my hopes up, and remember to say
How are you? hell it's been awhile
Since I've seen 'ya, you okay? Have you kept' out of trouble
I hear that things have been rough, I'll take a load off your mind
Let's take a trip, grab a drink, talk and maybe unwind
It ain't gon' hurt no one if we spend a day with eachother
I don't care if it happens that we end up together
Time for a break, c'mon let's take a load off our minds
And just relax, take a day and just spend some time.
Yeah let's spend some time
I sit and listen, you tell me that things have been crazy
Then it's my turn to tell you my side of the story
It's been a hell of a time since we last saw eachother
I'm thinkin', gettin' my hopes up, my heart's at the ready
I know it's silly to hold onto hope when it's really
A couple good friends just hanging around bein' silly
I guess as all of the weight's slidin' off of our shoulders
I'm feelin' lighter than air and it's makin' me nervous
Later that day as the sun's setting borders the skyline
I walk you home as the hope in my heart begins dyin'
That's when you look at me and pull a heart stopper
You tell me later on that you really wanna come over
I do a double take before I just laugh and I smile
I haven't had any friends come on by in awhile
I'm just surprised that you actually wanna come over
Even as I leave I can't stop lookin over my shoulder
It's a new day, new day, new day risin'
It's a new day, new day, new day risin'
It's a new day, new day, new day risin'
It's a new day, new day, new day risin'
