Till It Happens to You Lyrics
I know what I said, was heat of the moment.
There's a little truth in between the words we spoke and, it's a little late now to fix a heart that's broken.
Please don't ask me where I'm going.
Cause I don't know.
No I don't know, anymore.
It used to feel like heaven,
It used to feel like May.
I used to hear those violins playing heart strings like a symphony,
Now they've gone away. Nobody wants to face the truth, but you won't believe what love can do.
Till it happens to you.
Till it happens to you.
Went to, the old flat, guess I was trying to turn the clock back, but how comes that nothing feels the same now when I'm with you?
We used to stay up all night, in the kitchen, when our love was new.
Ooooh love,
Am I a fool to believe in you?
'cause I don't know, no I don't know anymore.
It used to feel like heaven,
it used to feel like May.
I used to hear those violins playing heart strings like a symphony,
now they're gone away.
Nobody wants to know the truth until their hearts broken.
Don't you dare tell them what you think to do,
till they get over. You can only learn these things from experience
When you get older.
I just wish that someone would've told me.
Mmm hmm mmmm.

...i wish someone woulda told me
this song is happening to me right now
i love the last part when she goes: "mmm mmm mmmm.."
but this whole song is just great. i love it.
This is about looking back on a beautiful relationship which has jst dissapeared. It relating a serious message that love can damage but no one wants to know that till it happens to you.
^ Totally agree with you, lie to me. About a love lost, and how you wish knew that it would hurt this bad. :( I'm going through something like this—only, I knew that it would hurt this bad, but I still went ahead and did it.
this song makes me think about my ex i knew it was gunna happen but i still gave her a chance when i knew i shouldent have
this is happening to me right at this moment.. only a few hours ago, someone broke my heart for the first time.
i just wish someone would've told me.. instead letting it happen to me.
So how I feel right now. She is such a beautiful singer.
I gave me ex chance after chance. Hes still messing around with this girl that used to be like my best friend.
And trying to mess around with me, telling me he loves me and wants to be with me one day, and her the next.
Yeah, I cant believe I let him walk all over me for so long.
this song is beautiful... 'nobody wants to know the truth til their heart's broken'- so true...
'i used to hear... like a symphony...' beautiful line
