Suddenly - Copeland

Two, three, four

Two, three

It was a wild, wild dream, but I was afraid to love you

The years went by, I was tracing your shape

Now it feels as though I would, would tremble to touch you

All these years I was typing your name

And suddenly you’re not a smile on a screen

Suddenly I’m floating miles above a canyon in the sun

And heavy as the riverbed beneath

Dry and crumbling at your feet

(At your feet)

I’m returning from a trip across her kindness

I’ll be waiting in the courts of her highness

I could be counting all the flutters of her eyelids

While I’m lost here in the sound of her quiet

(Suddenly there you are)

And suddenly you’re not a smile on a screen

(Suddenly there you are)

Suddenly I’m floating miles above a canyon in the sun

(Suddenly there you are)

And heavy as the riverbed beneath

(Suddenly there I’ll be)

Dry and crumbling at your feet

(At your feet, at your feet)

And suddenly you’re not a smile on a screen

Suddenly I’m floating miles above a canyon in the sun

And heavy as the riverbed beneath

Dry and crumbling at your feet
