Suddenly - Michael Ball

Suddenly you are here

Suddenly it starts

Can two anxious hearts beat as one?

Yesterday I was alone

Today you walk beside me

Something still unclear

Something not yet here has begun

Suddenly the world

Seems a different place

Somehow full of grace and delight

How was I to know that so much hope was held inside me?

What has passed is gone

Now we journey on through the night

How was I to know at last that happiness can come so fast?

Trusting me the way you do

I’m so afraid of failing you

Just a child who cannot know that danger follows where I go

There are shadows everywhere

And memories I cannot share

Nevermore alone

Nevermore apart

You have warmed my heart like the sun

You have brought the gift of life

And love so long denied me

Suddenly I see

What I could not see

Something suddenly

Has begun
