Waiting In The Weeds Lyrics - Long Road Out Of Eden - The Eagles

It's coming on the end of August 

Another summer's promise almost gone 

And though I heard some wise man say 

That every dog will have his day 

He never mentioned that these dog days get so long 

I don't know when I realized the dream was over 

Well, there was no particular hour, no given day 

You know it didn't go down in flame 

There was no final scene, no frozen frame 

I just watched it slowly fade away 

And I've been waiting in the weeds 

Waiting for my time to come around again and 

Hope is floating on the breeze 

Carrying my soul high up above the ground and 

I've been keeping to myself 

Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing 

Even though you're with somebody else 

He'll never love you like I do

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows 

While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage 

If finding love is just a dance 

Proximity and chance 

You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade 

And I've been waiting in the weeds 

Waiting for the dust to settle down along the 

Back roads running through the fields 

Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town 

And I imagine sunlight in your hair 

You're at the county fair 

You're holding hands and laughing 

And now the ferris wheel has stopped 

You're swinging on the top 

Suspended there with him 

And he's the darling of 

the chic 

The flavor of the week is melting 

Down your pretty summer dress 

Baby, what a mess you're making 

I've been stumbling through some dark places 

Now I'm following the plow 

I know I've fallen out of your good graces 

It's alright now 

I've been waiting in the weeds 

Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the 

Wild birds scattering the seeds 

Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune 

The phases of the moon 

The chambers of the heart 

The ebb and dart of small gray 

Spiders spinning in the dark 

In spite of all the times the web is torn apart 

And I've been waiting in the weeds 

Waiting for the time to come around again and 

Hope is floating on the breeze 

Carrying my soul high up above the ground and 

I've been keeping to myself 

Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing 

Even though you're with somebody else 

He'll never love you like I do
