About Suddenly

"Suddenly" is a song by American R&B singer–songwriter Toni Braxton, released internationally in February 2006 as the lead single from the European edition of her fifth studio album, Libra (2005). Written and produced by Richard Marx, it failed to make the charts anywhere. The track features Chris Botti on the trumpet, and was originally planned to appear on his 2005 album To Love Again: The Duets. Marx recorded this song as a duet with Braxton for his 2008 studio release Sundown and would later release it as a solo track on Now And Forever: The Ballads and yet as a different version on Beautiful Goodbye.

It only took a moment
A solitary glance
And I could hear the voice of rapture call
Iâ??ve loved you from a distance
Afraid to take a chance
And now it seems I canâ??t help but to fall
Imagine my surprise
To open up my eyes
And find that you were looking back

And suddenly
I can not remember who I used to be
And like the rain this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before is gone
And suddenly
Iâ??m no longer drifting on an empty sea
And now I know that I believe in destiny
And mine is waiting right here in your arms

I longed to awake besides you
And bathe in love's abyss
Washing all that comes before away
And in this frozen moment as I receive your kiss
There will not be words enough to say
I wanna make you melt, touch you like noone else
And do it all again a thousand times

And suddenly
I can not remember who I used to be
And like the rain this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before is gone
And suddenly
Iâ??m no longer drifting on an empty sea
And now I know that I believe in destiny
And mine is waiting right here in your arms

In your arms

I wanna make you melt, touch you like noone else
And do it all again a thousand times

And suddenly
I can not remember who I used to be
And like the rain this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before is gone
And suddenly
Iâ??m no longer drifting on an empty sea
And now I know that I believe in destiny
And mine is waiting right here in your arms

In your arms
