This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just can't be
This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just ain't real
Is it something I feel
Or is it real
At first I thought this was a dream
My life is not what it seems
It's beautiful to those around me
But what I need I have not found
This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just can't be
This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just ain't real
Is it something I feel
Or is it real
It must be a dream
It couldn't been real
Living this way just cannot be
All is not well, this I can see
I know in life there are ups and downs
But never I wanted to be pushed around
At nights when I go to bed
Everything keeps moving through my head
I say a prayer for some peace and love
Dear Jah, please send me some blessing from above
This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just can't be
This could not be happening to me
Oh no, it just, it just ain't real
This, this, oh this
It just can't be
