Suddenly

Story Behind The Song

There is hope, in a real way, a life changing way. It can happen in an instant, don't miss it, it's not corny, it is a lifeline...if you see it...if you feel it. Put that in a song.

When the pit is deep, and looking up the opening is a pin prick, so little light filters down, it is hard to breathe, walk, think. Yet change can occur, fleeting, a glance of life, fast to catch it, for how long is anybodies guess.

Lyrics

SUDDENLY/Michael Oosten
My eyes did not see
The simplest of things
My finger did not feel
These guitar strings
Suddenlt
Tomorrow is today
The past just
Slips away
Things gone
Come back to me
Everything changes
Crystallized in a glance

How long
Have I lived in shadow
Dreams turn
Into dust
Suddenly
Old things are new
Through my same window
Appears a different view
Opening
The world swims through
Awake now
Time to move

Dreams and ability
Dance as twisting smoke
Confusion & doubt
Grab my throat
Suddenly
There's calm inside my storm
Darkness breaks
On this new day
My skin
Swims through the air
I breathe
Without fear
Suddenly
