It Hasn`t Happened Yet

 

It Hasn`t Happened Yet Lyrics

I was crossing the snow fields
In front of the Capital building.
It was Christmas, and I was alone.
Strange city.
Strangers for friends.
And I was broke.

As the carollon sang its song
I dreamt of success.
I would be the best.
I would make my folks proud.
I would be happy...

- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened

Yes, there are nods in my direction
Clap of hands
The knowing smile
But still
I`m scared again

Foot slipped
Pebbles fall and so did I
- Almost
(I`m high)
On Yosemite
The big grey wall
(Fear of falling)
Where to put my foot next
(Fear of failure)
I`m afraid I`m going to fall
(Be at one with the mountain)
I whispered in the air
(Fear of falling, fear of falling, fear of failure...Failure)
Fear of losing my hair
(Falling, falling, falling...)
When is the mountain scaled?
When do I feel I haven`t failed?
I`ve got to get it together, man
(It hasn`t happened yet)

- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened

People come up and say hello
OK
I can get to the front of the line
But you have to ignore the looks
And... yet
I`m waiting for that feeling of contentment
That ease at night when you put your head down
And the rhythms slow to sleep

My head sways
And eyes start awake
I`m there not halfway between sleep and death
But looking into
Eyes wide open
Trying to remember
What I might have done
Should have done

At my age
I need serenity
I need peace

- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened yet
- It hasn`t happened
