Patience

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you

I'm still alright to smile

Girl, I think about you every day now

Was a time when I wasn't sure

But you set my mind at ease

There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Said woman, take it slow, it'll work itself out fine

All we need is just a little patience

Said sugar, make it slow, and we'll come together fine

All we need is just a little patience

Ooh, yeah

I sit here on the stairs 'cause I'd rather be alone

If I can't have you right now, I'll wait, dear

Sometimes I get so tense, but I can't speed up the time

But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider

Said woman take it slow and things will be just fine

You and I'll just use a little patience

Said sugar take the time cuz the lights are shining bright

You and I've got what it takes to make it

We won't fake it, oh, never break it, 'cause I can't take it.

A little patience, mmm, yeah, oh, yeah, I need a little patience.

Yeah, just a little patience

Yeah, some more patience

I've been walking the streets at night

Just trying to get it right

It's hard to see with so many around

You know I don't like being stuck in the crowd

And the streets don't change, but maybe the names

I ain't got time for the game, 'cause I need you

Whoa, I need you

Whoa, I need you

Whoa, I need you

Whoa, this time
