Transcription by martin l. lobemeier (martin@
This song was written by Soraya in 1993 and published on her first album on nights like this (1996), produced by Rod Argent and Peter Van Hooke.
I put the mandolin's melody to guitar-tabulature.
The bars above the notation stand for approximate major beats.
By the way... can't figure it out what the guitar really plays during the chorus - somebody ask Mitch Dalton (the player on the cd!!) Play it anyway like this:
SUDDENLY (Soraya)
verse: (repeat almost endlessly)

F#m E A
a thousand eyes looking at me
F#m E A
but yours is the look that goes right through me and i
F#m E A
cannot hide from your stare
F#m E A
should i let you in - do i dare
F#m E A
some other hands have tried before
F#m E A
but yours is the touch that makes me want more
F#m E A
cannot hide the urgency
F#m E A
to have you lying here with me because
Chorus
A E D(add9)
suddenly in my life
A E D(add9)
there's something that's got me mystified and i
A E D(add9) A E D(add9)
cannot fight it but i can try to keep the wonder of it alive
a thousand words have tried to say
but yours are the ones that'll never fade away
and i cannot hide from their sound
i am mesmerized spinning round and round and
some other hearts have tried to steal mine
yours is the one that i now hold dear
i'll do what it takes to keep you here
i'm a selfish fool but i have no fear
Chorus
Mandolin-Solo: (those underlined play with mandolin-effect)

a thousand times i've tried to stay alone by pushing you away
time after time and tear after tear
i find myself back her with you
a thousand visions have come to me
all promising serenity
as i struggle to find the source of this peace
i always end up with your kiss
