Blue Rodeo Arizona Dust Lyrics

Oh darling That's not the way it was planned I know I kept you waiting I screwed up my timing again

You told me the fears that were in your head Sitting there cross-legged on my bed Don't you stay away long that's what you said

So quickly Summer ran right into spring I see your face lying next to me Just on the edge of my dreams

So tired I can't explain I lost something precious that was in my hand Let it all slip away slow like grains of sand

If you're through with me I guess I'll see When I'm standing at your door I finally got my balance back To where I was before And I've never been so lonely So I'm singing a Skydiggers' song As I'm eating Arizona dust And wishing I was home
It's too hard to look back When you don't like what you see Pictures of all the people I love I let them down so casually

You told me all the fears that were in your head Sitting there cross-legged on my bed Don't you stay away long that's what you said

If you're through with me I guess I'll see When I'm standing at your door I finally got my balance back To where I was before And I've never been so lonely So I'm singing a Skydiggers' song As I'm eating Arizona dust And wishing I was home
