[00:11.66]It's comin'on the end of August
[00:20.66]Another summer's promise almost gone
[00:30.63]And though I heard some wise man say
[00:35.97]That every dog will have his day
[00:41.17]He never mentioned that these dog days get so long
[00:51.72]I don't know when I realized the dream was over
[01:02.19]Well, there was no particular hour, no given day
[01:12.64]You know it didn't go down in flame
[01:17.89]There was no final scene, no frozen frame
[01:24.09]I just watched it slowly fade away
[01:34.58]And I've been waiting in the weeds
[01:38.49]Waiting for my time to come around again and
[01:44.92]Hope is floating on the breeze
[01:48.97]Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
[01:55.60]I've been keepin'to myself
[01:59.45]Knowin' that the seasons are slowly changing
[02:06.03]Even though you're with somebody else
[02:09.56]He'll never love you like I do
[02:19.78]I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows
[02:29.27]While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage
[02:39.07]If finding love is just a dance
[02:44.92]Proximity and chance
[02:49.47]You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade
[03:00.50]And I've been waiting in the weeds
[03:04.91]Waiting for the dust to settle down
[03:10.00]Along the back roads running through the fields
[03:15.37]Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town
[03:20.80]And I imagine sunlight in your hair
[03:25.54]You're at the county fair
[03:28.11]You're holding hands and laughing
[03:31.20]And now the ferris wheel has stopped
[03:36.02]You're swinging on the top
[03:38.65]Suspended there with him
[03:42.70]And he's the darling of the sheik
[03:46.90]The flavor of the week
[03:50.30]Is melting down your pretty summer dress
[03:57.31]Baby, what a mess you're making
[04:25.43]I've been stumbling through some dark places
[04:30.67]Now I'm following the plow
[04:35.54]I know I've fallen out of your good graces
[04:41.45]It's alright now
[04:45.41]And I've been waiting in the weeds
[04:49.66]Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon
[04:55.55]The wild birds scattering the seeds
[05:01.58]Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune
[05:08.97]The phases of the moon
[05:11.73]The chambers of the heart
[05:14.35]The ebb and dart of small gray spiders
[05:19.88]Spinning in the dark
[05:22.19]In spite of all the times the web is torn apart
[05:28.53]And I've been waiting in the weeds
[05:33.04]Waiting for my time to come around again and
[05:39.59]Hope is floating on the breeze
[05:43.51]Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
[05:50.14]I've been keeping to myself
[05:53.99]Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing
[06:00.47]Even though you're with somebody else
[06:04.18]He'll never love you like I do
