I totally agree. Favourite on Long Road Out of Eden along with Centre of the Universe. Whenever I hear it, it just takes my mind to another place. Henley is sublime as usual!. For the non eagles purists - I think it might be a little to long for some people - they just run out of patience for songs this long. But oddly enough I adore The Last Resort because again it takes you to another time and place.
I've been listening to Henley and co since my mid teens, I'm now 63 and never ever get tired of hearing them, I've travelled many miles and spent many pounds watching them, time and money well spent
There is something so sad and melancholy about this song. Loss of opportunity, trapped by your own apathy, knowing that this is happening to you and yet embracing that loss of love and the inability to improve your happiness.. Life and love goes on without you and you simply watch it go by with both a longing for it and a 'good riddance' attitude towards it. There is just so much going on in this song. It touches my innermost emotions
I am an Arab, and I love this song, I think the lyrics are unmatched. I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it in 2008, and still loving it in 2020.
It doesn't matter in what kind of nation we are living, music is for everyone on this planet. Music is the only thing, that makes you laugh, cry or smile at the same time. Many greetings from Austria :)
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 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 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
Right up there with their classics from the 70's...great lyrics great harmony and vocals . Such an underrated song along with the album. Anyone else missing Glen Frey now?
They are all exceptional but Don being an English major and a genuine love of words, really shows in everything they do. I remember when Felder came up with the HC track he said he went to the studio and after playing it Henley almost immediately "visualized a theme" & wrote on a post stick note "On a Dark desert highway"..He the ability to let the music guide him to the lyrics and he also has a great passion of "looking back" in so many of his songs...I think that's what make them so relatable...Along with his perfect voice
Holy smokes... you think your Eagles playlist is settled into the background, and then all of a sudden you're drifting into a nostalgic trance. Priceless.
Your comment made me smile. Thank you. The expression "holy smokes" always has me in stitches. A dear friend of mine came down the stairs of a commune, found one of the other residence passed out on the lounge floor. She uttered " holy smokes", and promptly dragged the person out onto the grass and left them there. I was stunned.
Incredible song. If this song came out during their heyday in the 70s it would still be played on Classic Rock stations along with Desperado and Tequila Sunrise.
You will excuse me if i skip the masquerade ... Mister Henley, your lyrics, your voice, your sense for creating emotions ... thank you for everything (we are missing Glenn RIP) ....
I've been listening to The Eagles for over 35 years and I never tire of their music. This song is amongst the best 3 or 4 they've ever made. Very sad Glenn passed away, he was a unique talent and sadly missed, but the music will live on forever. PS; great video sir.

Music is and has been my God for my 49 years. I listen to and read the words of songs from the 60s 70s 80s and can't help but notice most song truly only have a hand full of words, that are of course repeated. Don Henley and the Eagles are ahead of their time with the layout and writings of their songs. Just look at this masterpiece, you are drawn into the whole story like a small child being read a bed time book by your Dad, as many of their in their own league songs , taking you on your personal journey. Hotel California End of the innocence Many many more. Much more than Just songs
A masterpiece of modern music when compared to what is out there today, wonderful lyrics and harmonies , greatly missed eagles that we shall carry with us to our resting places.
Superb song - interesting to see that some of the biggest crowd pullers today at live concerts are still from the eagles era -lets move away from the trash that is todays music and listen again to the likes of these superb groups that could teach most of todays talent show one day wonders what its all really about - longevity and the ability to play live as you first heard it and to give real value for hard earned bucks !!
It was the August 2009 that the first time I listened this song at the desert located at Uzbekistan when a girl I deeply loved left me.It’s a tough time to me. I listened this song thousands times until I met my wife in 2013. And I back to China marriage with her at early 2014. Thanks this song always give me the power to waiting.
This song just wakens up so many emotions in me. It appeals to my sad melancholy so much. The music, the words, the melody. It just all comes together to paint a sad tableau of lost love and lost opportunities and saying 'to hell with it all, I'm choose to be lonely'. It creates so many images in my mind. I think of some of the girls I let get away in my younger days and think of the happy lives they are living now. Me, I'm divorced and alone and you always can't help but think about how things might have been.
I love the whole of "Long Road Out Of Eden" album. This song it's easily one of the best songs they've ever written, the lyrics are absolutely amazing.... The music is absolutely amazing... That piano outro just gives me goosebumps every single time... 😍 Still remember watching them live on this album's tour.... It was an EPIC, magical night that i'll remember forever. Joe nearly ripped the roof out of the arena with his guitar solos... 😂 It's just a crying shame that there is no live album from that tour... 😢
this lyrical quality is a gift and a love letter to the world and the tunes and melodies immortalize it....hope they had never grown old and why do good things end so suddenly...
@@noahdelaat4735 Yep, 2020, I am 70 and have at least one evening a week just listening to simply the best group ever, this is one of their best, the ending is truly magical, musical genius's.
my partner of almost 13 years gave me 'Long Road Out of Eden 'christmas 2010, it was our last christmas together...Waiting in the Weeds became my anthem during my efforts to win her back but to no avail.Hearing this song still is still very bittersweet and takes me back to that dark place i was in for quite a while....these days ,'No more Cloudy Days is more fitting to me...Still love Waiting in the Weeds, but the dream is over...
I'm so sorry. My situation was the opposite; I fell in love with my future husband when he asked me to listen and type out the lyrics to this album.(he's in a band).
James Martin, I relapsed on a few beers...after years of her begging and threatening me she decided I am a lost cause...as the song says ''it's alright now..."
I had the chance of a life time to see the Eagles for the first time in my life in Edmonton Alberta ( years ago) while they were on tour promoting Long Road out of Eden! The best concert I have ever been to! They have always held a special place in my heart.

I love this song I lost my wife to cancer 1 year ago and every time I hear this song I vision myself walking up a spiral staircase lifted by the music until at the end she is there and wraps me in her arms again I love it
It's coming on the end of August. Another summer's promise almost gone. And thought I heard some wise men 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 flames, 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 know you're with somebody else, He'll never love you like I do. I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows, While peacocks prance and strut up on 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, playboy of the week, The flavor of the week is melting down your pretty summer dress, baby what a mess you're making. I've been stumbling though some dark places, And I'm following the cloud. I know I've fallen out of your good graces It's all right now. And 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 egg and dart. A small gray spider 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 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 know you're with somebody else, He'll never love you like I do.
When i was a little kid i enjoyed this song so much in my dad's car.He was an Eagle's fan those years.I think i can feel the emotion of this masterpiece.Love it so much.
Gorgeous song. I can remember listening to the Eagles playing this song in 2009 and there I was saying goodbye to someone in my head siting in row 12. Row 12 is totally unconnected by the way!
Gorgeous song l can remember listening to the Eagles playing this song in 2009 and there l was saying goodbye to someone in head siting in row 12 Row 12 is totally unconnected by the way!
This song is so true to an experience of my own life it couldn't have been written any more perfect...May God bless the surviving band and Glenn Frey we miss you.
Sometimes the inner expression finds a way to get flown away on a journey that introduces oneself to the personal story and deep meaning of life. For me, this song is a beautiful and gracious depiction of humble acceptance of a situation in life, and yet yearning for it to favor us in the clamour of life. The tune of this song stayed with me. My mind and heart restricted it's world to just this song. This is the music that is closer to the life and has a magnetic field of sorts in it which hooks us beautifully.
My best friend´s dad worked a lot with The Eagles back in the days... He handpicked this song for his cremation, I haven´t listened to it for a year, now I allow myself this song every 6 months, to appreciate great music and remember times. Live and love.

It's so beautiful isn't it ❤️
Ure right
Its a classic

Its so honest it hurts. Maybe thats why
Absolutely beautiful ......one of their best ever songs.....
This song is such a masterpiece. It's so beautiful and melodious.
Old musics bring you back to so many memories, especially this one.
I've been listening to Henley and co since my mid teens, I'm now 63 and never ever get tired of hearing them, I've travelled many miles and spent many pounds watching them, time and money well spent
This one never gets over me...
Likeable from the moment it came to be heard...

Like my life now.
Requires a certain age to appreciate this song, Time to have loved and lost then ponder both
It's just a ballad, the lyrics are special and the singing. Further it's an ordinary song, not super
This song is what every songwriter should aspire to. Such incredible lyrics married with perfect melody and that voice...
Its so hard to choose but think this is my best ever eagles song the more I listen to it the more it becomes part of me
I am an Arab, and I love this song, I think the lyrics are unmatched. I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it in 2008, and still loving it in 2020.

❤ Masterpiece from the Masters
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
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
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
Thank you ever so much for this it’s nice to sing along 😅
Thank you for lyric
Thanks for sharing the lyrics...this song has moved me!...
I never get tired of hearing Don Henley's voice along with the harmonies of the rest of this wonderful group. I still love them!
Glad.to.hear.that.there.my.favorite.group.greetings.from.Guanaja..Honduras
Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Bruce Springsteen ... there are voices that one never tires of hearing, they are not voices, they are melodies themselves
If you're into lyrics, lyrics by the Eagles then you are bound to come across and find the path of the hidden Eagle: Jackson Browne
Right up there with their classics from the 70's...great lyrics great harmony and vocals . Such an underrated song along with the album. Anyone else missing Glen Frey now?
I miss Glen Frey so much---he was an excellent piano player too---I am half Italian--My mother is german---------Where do you live Mr.Gulliver ?---
They are all exceptional but Don being an English major and a genuine love of words, really shows in everything they do.

It's coming on the end of August.
Another summer's promise almost gone.
And thought I heard some wise men 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 flames,
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 know you're with somebody else,
He'll never love you like I do.
I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows,
While peacocks prance and strut up on 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, playboy of the week,
The flavor of the week is melting down your pretty summer dress, baby what a mess you're making.
I've been stumbling though some dark places,
And I'm following the cloud.
I know I've fallen out of your good graces
It's all right now.
And 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 egg and dart.
A small gray spider 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 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 know you're with somebody else,
He'll never love you like I do.

I heard the Eagles when I was in my teens, first album I bought was The long run. I am now 52 and I still love heir sound.
This song is amazing. One of many great Eagles tracks.
Oh my days what an Album ! Consistent Eagles quality. My favourite Band ever. There I said it.
An absolute classic, my all time favourite song from one of the top bands ever
I cry every single time....
Beautiful piece of music by the Eagles, and the way they rolled it up at the end, is brilliant and masterful...
Gorgeous song. I can remember listening to the Eagles playing this song in 2009 and there I was saying goodbye to someone in my head siting in row 12. Row 12 is totally unconnected by the way!

Beautiful harmonies
It is indeed a masterpiece. They can't write music and lyrics like this anymore. Wonderful and so well produced!
Absolute perfection 👍🏻🏴
Absolutely amazing music! And the super Don's voice make me happy all the time I listen Eagles!
Never tire of listening this song even in the year 2020
What a Masterpiece
Great song and wonderful lyrics. I've always liked Don Henley's songwriting.
This song is so true to an experience of my own life it couldn't have been written any more perfect...May God bless the surviving band and Glenn Frey we miss you.
Maybe the best Eagles song.
My absolute favorite song, on this album. 👍♥️
a beautiful song and a beautiful video
Sometimes the inner expression finds a way to get flown away on a journey that introduces oneself to the personal story and deep meaning of life. For me, this song is a beautiful and gracious depiction of humble acceptance of a situation in life, and yet yearning for it to favor us in the clamour of life. The tune of this song stayed with me. My mind and heart restricted it's world to just this song. This is the music that is closer to the life and has a magnetic field of sorts in it which hooks us beautifully.
Quintessential Eagles...melody, harmonies, Henley's voice, beautiful lyrics and a great outro. ...absolute classic
My best friend´s dad worked a lot with The Eagles back in the days... He handpicked this song for his cremation, I haven´t listened to it for a year, now I allow myself this song every 6 months, to appreciate great music and remember times. Live and love.
A real classic
What an outstanding song . it is a master peace .
First time heard this song, really gets my soul soaring high, just a moment i was lost together with my troubles.
