It's comin' on the end of August |
| [00:21.160] |
Another summer's promise almost gone |
| [00:30.850] |
And though I heard some wise man say |
| [00:36.120] |
That every dog will have his day |
| [00:41.380] |
He never mentioned that these dog days get so long |
| [00:49.690] |
|
| [00:51.950] |
I don't know when I realized the dream was over |
| [01:02.460] |
Well, there was no particular hour, no given day |
| [01:13.000] |
You know, it didn't go down in flame |
| [01:18.370] |
There was no final scene, no frozen frame |
| [01:24.450] |
I just watched it slowly fade away |
| [01:31.550] |
|
| [01:34.840] |
And I've been waiting in the weeds |
| [01:38.910] |
Waiting for my time to come around again and |
| [01:45.470] |
Hope is floating on the breeze |
| [01:49.330] |
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and |
| [01:55.950] |
I've been keeping to myself |
| [01:59.920] |
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing you |
| [02:06.470] |
And though you're with somebody else |
| [02:10.220] |
He'll never love you like I do |
| [02:15.170] |
|
| [02:20.530] |
I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows |
| [02:29.910] |
While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage |
| [02:39.780] |
If finding love is just a dance |
| [02:45.750] |
Proximity and chance |
| [02:50.290] |
You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade |
| [02:58.710] |
|
| [03:01.640] |
And I've been waiting in the weeds |
| [03:05.770] |
Waiting for the dust to settle down along the |
| [03:12.180] |
Back roads running through the fields |
| [03:16.160] |
Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town |
| [03:21.870] |
And I imagine sunlight in your hair |
| [03:26.530] |
You're at the county fair |
| [03:29.040] |
You're holding hands and laughing |
| [03:33.140] |
And now the ferris wheel has stopped |
| [03:37.050] |
You're swinging on the top |
| [03:39.630] |
Suspended there with him |
| [03:43.270] |
And he's the darling of the sheik |
| [03:47.580] |
The flavor of the week is melting |
| [03:54.340] |
Down your pretty summer dress |
| [03:58.320] |
Baby, what a mess you're making |
| [04:05.450] |
|
| [04:26.840] |
I've been stumbling through some dark places |
| [04:32.040] |
Now I'm following the plow |
| [04:36.900] |
I know I've fallen out of your good graces |
| [04:42.800] |
It's alright now |
| [04:47.110] |
And I've been waiting in the weeds |
| [04:50.980] |
Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the |
| [04:57.460] |
Wild birds scattering the seeds |
| [05:01.450] |
Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune |
| [05:09.140] |
The phases of the moon |
| [05:11.730] |
The chambers of the heart |
| [05:14.440] |
The ebb and dart of small gray |
| [05:18.390] |
Spiders spinning in the dark |
| [05:22.330] |
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart |
| [05:29.050] |
And I've been waiting in the weeds |
| [05:33.020] |
Waiting for the time to come around again and |
| [05:39.580] |
Hope is floating on the breeze |
| [05:43.550] |
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and |
| [05:50.100] |
I've been keeping to myself |
| [05:54.040] |
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing you |
| [06:00.590] |
And though you're with somebody else |
| [06:04.610] |
He'll never love you like I do |
