About This Track

'Happening Again' by Celeste is a 2025 pop track from the album 'Woman Of Faces'. The lyrics trace a recurring pattern of emotional uncertainty, with the feeling that someone draws close and then slips away, leaving the narrator’s defence worn down and their attention pulled back to the present. The repeated hook phrase, “happening again”, frames it as a cycle rather than a one-off rupture.

"Happening Again" is a track by Celeste, from the album Woman Of Faces, released 14th November 2025. The track is 4:04 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 7 articles about Celeste.

Lyrics

Happening Again

Happening again, happening again
Happening again, happening again
He plays upon my heart, near, then you're far
Or so this is what I'm hearing
It's happening again, happening again
Loses every part, here in tilted arms
I'm losing my defense every now and then
Back to present tense

Either way I go, I know it's happening again
Every time I went off around the bend
Unravelling again
These feelings I befriend grow with ill intent
And as a consequence
Either way I go, I know

All my life without it is a burden to itself
To watch me learn and say I should've known
It's not for me to understand the end before the close

Happening again
Losing everything, dialling in again
The call never dies, acting in those eyes
In every single stride I've been in
Baby, you're my never-do, standing in my room
Up it creeps to me, so quietly it moves
As I lay in the lap, it reassures me that
The faults were in the past I've been in

All of my desertion doesn't serve me very well
Oh, well, I wear it like a debt upon my sleeve
If all of my life without you is a verse to live and learn
Then surely I'll emerge in one piece
And I reset the time and then you appear
The answer that has no reply
