[00:12.47]It's comin' on the end of August[00:21.76]Another summer's promise almost gone[00:31.45]And though I heard some wise man say[00:36.72]That every dog will have his day[00:41.98]He never mentioned that these dog days get so long[00:50.29][00:52.55]I don't know when I realized the dream was over[01:03.06]Well, there was no particular hour, no given day[01:13.60]You know, it didn't go down in flame[01:18.97]There was no final scene, no frozen frame[01:25.05]I just watched it slowly fade away[01:32.15][01:35.44]And I’ve been waiting in the weeds[01:39.51]Waiting for my time to come around again and[01:46.07]Hope is floating on the breeze[01:49.93]Carrying my soul high up above the ground and[01:56.55]I've been keepin' to myself[02:00.52]Knowin' that the seasons are slowly changing[02:07.07]Even though you're with somebody else[02:10.82]He'll never love you like I do[02:15.77][02:21.13]I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows[02:30.51]While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage[02:40.38]If finding love is just a dance[02:46.35]Proximity and chance[02:50.89]You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade[02:59.31][03:02.24]And I’ve been waiting in the weeds[03:06.37]Waiting for the dust to settle down along the[03:12.78]Back roads running through the fields[03:16.76]Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town[03:22.47]And I imagine sunlight in your hair[03:27.13]You're at the county fair[03:29.64]You're holding hands and laughing[03:33.74]And now the ferris wheel has stopped[03:37.65]You're swinging on the top[03:40.23]Suspended there with him[03:43.87]And he's the darling of the sheik[03:48.18]The flavor of the week is melting[03:54.94]Down your pretty summer dress[03:58.92]Baby, what a mess you're making[04:06.05][04:27.44]I've been stumbling through some dark places[04:32.64]Now I'm following the plow[04:37.50]I know I've fallen out of your good graces[04:43.40]It's alright now[04:47.71]And I’ve been waiting in the weeds[04:51.58]Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the[04:58.06]Wild birds scattering the seeds[05:02.05]Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune[05:09.74]The phases of the moon[05:12.33]The chambers of the heart[05:15.04]The ebb and dart of small gray[05:18.99]Spiders spinning in the dark[05:22.93]In spite of all the times the web is torn apart[05:29.65]And I've been waiting in the weeds[05:33.62]Waiting for the time to come around again and[05:40.18]Hope is floating on the breeze[05:44.15]Carrying my soul high up above the ground and[05:50.70]I've been keepinl to myself[05:54.64]Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing[06:01.19]Even though you're with somebody else[06:05.21]He'll never love you like I do[06:07.79]
