I gotta wait this out again
I’ll hold my ground ‘till the bitter end
I’ll close my eyes and I’ll shut my mouth
And I’ll keep saying my prayers to keep the devil out

And until the circumstances change
I'm gonna stay in bed
'Cause it’s a time of calculated waiting
Is what the pennies said
And I will let destiny keep playing
With whoever it wants instead
And I’ll keep planting
Those dandelions in my flower bed

I'm gonna step aside this time
I’ll let them fight it out and I don’t mind
No matter what I do or say
Is gonna come across in any better way

And until the circumstances change
I'm gonna stay in bed
'Cause it’s a time of calculated waiting
Is what the pennies said
And I will let destiny keep playing
With whoever it wants instead
And I’ll keep planting
Those dandelions in my flower bed

I sometimes don’t know why I try
When it comes back to me every time
‘Cause everyone’s got something to prove, something to lose
And I’ll never know what it’s like being you

And until the circumstances change
I'm gonna stay in bed
'Cause it’s a time of calculated waiting
Is what the pennies said
And I will let destiny keep playing
With whoever it wants instead
And I’ll keep planting
Those dandelions in my flower bed
