Suddenly
Hear'Say Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Having fun, getting sun, moving on
That seemed to be the thing for me
Single and so happy
Hit the town, getting down, play around
That's all I wanted to do, until I saw you
You came along, you proved me wrong
Shattered every dream I knew
I'm so glad I found you
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
And it changes everything
And it's so exciting
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
'Cause it took a hold on me
Out of nowhere suddenly
Suddenly... love has got a hold on me
Be a tease, hold the keys, love and leave
I thought I was in control
But I'm captured body and soul
Don't you see, you and me, destiny
I thought I've been in love before
But there is so much more
You came along, you were the one
Boy it's like a dream come true
I'm so glad I found you
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
And it changes everything
And it's so exciting
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
'Cause it took a hold on me
Out of nowhere suddenly
Suddenly... love has got a hold on me
Suddenly, out of the blue
You came along like a dream come true
I wasn't looking but you came to find me
Heavenly angel there to guide me
Try as I may I couldn't go wrong
'Cause you were waiting there all along
We had a bond, a genuine connection
'Cause destiny is the only direction
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
And it changes everything
And it's so exciting
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
'Cause it took a hold on me
Out of nowhere suddenly
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
And it changes everything
And it's so exciting
Suddenly, I can see I never knew love before
'Cause it took a hold on me
Out of nowhere suddenly
Suddenly, I can see ....
Suddenly, I can see ....
Suddenly, I can see ....




Suddenly, I can see ....
Suddenly
