Unsuspecting Hearts Lyrics

Verse 1: [Ashleigh Murray]
So many years, you faced the world alone
Frightened that life might pass you by
Then he appears
Someone who smiles at you
This is no time to question why
Love can find you when you least expect
Funny how two lives connect
That's how it starts
Two unsuspecting hearts

[Verse 2]

(Ashleigh Murray)
Let yourself go, give someone half-a-chance
Maybe he's waiting just for you
You never know, this could be paradise
Maybe your dreams just might come true
And you never know how things might go
Once you share that first hello
That's how it starts
Two unsuspecting hearts

In a world where nothing's sure
And nothing's ever guaranteed
You should trust the way you feel
That's the only thing that's real

(Madelaine Petsch)
It's like magic how your spirit soars
Once you feel his hand in yours
That's how it starts
Two unsuspecting hearts

[Chorus: Both]
In a world where nothing's sure
And nothing's ever guaranteed
(Nothing's guaranteed)
You should trust the way you feel
(Trust the way you feel)
That's the only thing that's real
It's like magic how your spirit soars
Once you feel his hand in yours
That's how it
That's how it
That's how it starts
Two unsuspecting
(Two unsuspecting)
Hearts

Genius Annotation

‘Unsuspecting Hearts’ is the fourth song from the Carrie The Musical episode of Riverdale (2x18). In the scene where this song is sung, Cheryl and Josie are rehearsing as Carrie White and Miss Gardner respectively.

In the song, Miss Gardner is singing to Carrie that she can be with whoever she wants to be with for the prom, and that she can go. The song’s overall theme of friendship coincides with the Riverdale reimagining, as Cheryl and Josie are repairing their friendship. Cheryl apologises after her stalking and obsession over Josie, to which Josie accepts.

 This song could also be seen as Josie accepting Cheryl for who she is. Because Cheryl’s stalking of Josie was because of her being unable to handle her feelings for Josie, the song is seen as an acceptance of Cheryl’s new relationship with southsider Toni Topaz.
