Something is happening and it started happening when you walked by
Something is happening and it's changing everything do you know why?

As soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
Love walked over, it's always happening the same sort of things to others too
Something is happening to me and I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Something is happening Exiting, bewildering you must know why
Something is happening I can't think of anything but you and I

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me and I only hope the same thing is happening to you

As soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
Love walked over, it's always happening the same sort of things to others too
Something is happening to me and I only hope the same thing is happening to you

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Herman's Hermits

Herman's Hermits are an English beat (or pop) band, formed in Manchester in 1963 as Herman & The Hermits. The group's record producer, Mickie Most (who controlled the band's output), emphasized a simple, non-threatening, clean-cut image, although the band originally played R&B numbers. This helped Herman's Hermits become hugely successful in the mid-1960s but dampened the band's songwriting; Noone, Hopwood, Leckenby and Green's songs were relegated to B-sides and album cuts. more »
