Suddenly

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 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) (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 --- Suddenly - Copeland
