It Hasn't Happened Yet

(John Hiatt)

You said that I would be sorry

If you went away

You said I wouldn't be happy

Without hell to pay

You said the teardrops would fall

Between the bedroom walls

You said that I would regret

But it hasn't happened yet

Your friends come over and offer

To take me to eat

They seem so sorry I'm sufferin'

So much misery

They say to just give a call

Next time that I start to crawl

I always say yeah you bet

But it hasn't happened yet

I don't have anyone

I'm havin' fun

Nobody's into me

No one's a mystery

I see you on the street

My heart don't miss a beat

Love and hostility

Don't mean a thing to me

I find it hard to remember

The good times we had

Call me insensitive

Now that it's over, I'm glad

You said when big shadows fell

It would be too hard to tell

My life from your silhouette

But it hasn't happened yet

Don't hold your breath, baby
