(Soothing Whistling)

Shed a tear 'cause I’m missin' you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl I think about you ev'ry 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
(Whispers) 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
Aah, never break it
'Cause I can't take it

(Acoustic guitar solo)

...Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah,
(next three lines repeat ‘til end of song)
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience

I've been walkin' the streets tonight
Just trying to get it right
It's hard to see when so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in a crowd
And the streets don't change, but baby the names
I ain't got time for this game
'Cause I need you
Yeah, well I need you
Ooo I need you,
Oh, I need you,
Ooo, oh this time
