When I woke, the world seemed beautiful
But then the birds sang out of tune
I flicked the switch, the bulb had gone again
And the sun was stuck behind the moon

No, say it isn't happening
No, say it's only make believe
No, it always happens to someone else
But now it's happening to me

I've heard crying on a radio
I've seen the heartache down the years
But always somewhere in a distance
Shattered hope and sudden tears

No, say it isn't happening
No, say it's only make believe
No, it always happens to someone else
But now it's happening to me
Now it's happening to me

I read your message over and over again
But it wouldn't change
I watched the door but nobody, nobody came
It was still the same

Oh, why is it happening?
No, say it's only make believe
No, it always happens to someone else
But now it's happening to me
Now it's happening to me

No, it always happens to someone else...
