Hasn't Hit Me Yet
Blue Rodeo Lyrics
You say that you're leaving
Well that comes as no surprise
Still I kinda like this feeling
Of being left behind
This ain't nothing new to me
Well its just like going home
It's kinda like those sunsets
That leave you feeling so stoned
Hey hey I guess it hasn't hit me yet
I fell through this crack
And I kinda lost my head
I stand transfixed before the streetlight
Watching the snowfall on this cold December night
Never thought this could happen
But somehow the feeling's gone
You got sick of the pattern
And I got lost in this song
Hey hey I guess it hasn't hit me yet
I fell through this crack
And I kinda lost my head
I stand transfixed before the streetlight
Watching the snowfall on this cold December night
Hey hey I guess it hasn't hit me yet
I fell through this crack
And I kinda lost my head
I stand transfixed before the streetlight
Watching the snowfall on this cold December night
Down in the middle of Lake Ontario
The same snow is falling
On the deep silent water
The great dark wonder
Into the waves of my heart
Into the waves of my heart
Of my heart

It’s sad because people don’t do their own thing anymore everyone just does the main stream BS. We need more original artists in the music industry
