"Patience" lyrics

Shed a tear because 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
And it'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, take it slow
And we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Patience

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
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it
Oh, I'll never break it
Cause I can't take it.
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 ohhh
And the streets don't change but
Baby, the names
I ain't got time for the game
'Cause I need you, yeah
Yeah, 'cause I need you
Baby, I need you
Oh, I need you
Yeah Yeah I need you
Oh, this time
