Suddenly I Was Alone Lyrics

Tryna do this hard jam they wrote, ha ha
Right, right (One, two)

Suddenly, without a warning
My heart skipped a beat
As if for a breathless moment
All the world stood still
Suddenly, my lips could find
No words to speak
Emptiness was all that my arms could feel

'Cause just like child (Like a child)
With a toy enchanted, I took one (I took one)
Far too much for granted
Suddenly (Suddenly) , I was all alone

Never, never forget to feel the flame of love
Else that burning fire just flickers and dies
I was a fool who played a game of love
Suddenly I lost my prize possession

Maybe by some chance, I'll hear down the hall
The footsteps of my love returning to my side
Maybe fate has pity for fools after all
And gives them a second to turn the tide

Oh, well, be true (Be true)
I will cling to love and vow to be
(Vow to be)
Always thinking of how suddenly (Suddenly)
I was all alone
