[Music From the Baul] This Never Happened Before

The Lake House overload last weekend! First saw it at 11AM Saturday, then saw it again same day at 11PM. Chae was the one who first loved this song. Then while watching the scene where Alex and Kate danced (as strangers), I was reaching for my ipod to listen to it again). Nice, nice song. Simple lyrics. Nice melody. Very Paul McCartney. Currently sitting in the same bench as "Brighter than Sunshine", "Biggest Part of Me", and "The Luckiest". Songs I will be singing one day.

Just like "Bridges of Madison County", there's that certainty again. Of knowing what you feel. Of that undeniable connection. The clarity of it all. I recall Robert (Clint Eastwood's character saying), "This certainty comes just once in a lifetime."

Nice quote from Persuasion (by Jane Austen): "...there could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so similar, no feelings so in unison, no countenances so beloved.”

This Never Happened Before
By Paul McCartney


i'm very sure
this never happened to me before
i met you and now i'm sure
this never happened before

now i see
this is the way it's supposed to be
i met you and now i see
this is the way it should be

this is the way it should be for lovers
they shouldn't go it alone
it's not so good when you're on your own

so come to me
now we can be what we wanna be
i love you and now i see
this is the way it should be

this is the way it should be

this is the way it should be for lovers
they shouldn't go it alone
it's not so good when you're on your own

i'm very sure
this never happened to me before
i met you and now i'm sure
this never happened before (this never happened before)
this never happened before (this never happened)
this never happened before (this never happened before)
