It Hasn't Happened Yet Lyrics - Has Been - William Shatner

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 carillon 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 

(Oh my) 

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
