Lyrics []
Kristopher: Suddenly, you're here, suddenly, it starts. Can two anxious beat as one? Yesterday, I was alone, today, you are beside. Something, still unclear, something not yet here has begun.
Suddenly, the world seems a different place. Somehow, full of grace, full of light. How was I to know that so much hope was held inside me? What is past is gone now we journey on through the night.
How was I to know, at last, that happiness could come so fast? Trusting me, the way you do, I'm so afraid of failing you.
Just a child, who cannot know that sadness follows where I go. There are shadows everywhere and memoires 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. Suddenly, something has begun.
