Supremes - The Happening Lyrics

Hey life, look at me
I can see the reality (it's the happening)
'Cause when you shook me, took me, outta my world
I woke up
Suddenly I just woke up to the happening

(Oohoo) When you find (Oohoo) that you left the future behind (it's the happening)
'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 (one day you're up)
When you turn around (when you turn around)
You find your world (you find your world)
Is tumbling down (is tumbling down)
It happened to me and it can happen to you

(Oohoo) I was sure, (Oohoo) I felt secure
Until love took a detour (it's the happening)
Yeah, riding high on the top of the world it happened
Suddenly it just happened
I saw my dreams (Oohoo) torn apart (Oohoo)
When love walked away from my heart (it's the happening)
And when you lose a precious love you need to guide you
Something happens inside you, the happening

Now I see life (now I see life)
For what it is (for what it is)
It's not a dream (it's not a dream)
Ooh, it's not a bliss (it's not a bliss)
It happened to me and it can happen to us

Oohoo, and then it happened
Oohoo, and then it happened
Oohoo, and then it happened

(Oohoo) Is it real? (Oohoo) Is it fake?
Is this game of life a mistake? (it's the happening)
'Cause when I lost the love
I thought was mine for certain
Suddenly it starts hurting
I saw the light (Oohoo) too late (Oohoo)
When that fickle finger of fate (it's the happening)
Yeah, it came and broke my pretty balloon
I woke up
Suddenly I just woke up (to the happening)

So sure, (Oohoo) I felt secure (Oohoo)
Until love took a detour (it's the happening)
'Cause when you got a tender love
You don't take care of
Then you better beware of
The happening
