Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' 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, make 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, I'll never break it, 'cause I can't take it
Little patience, yeah
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience, yeah
I've been walkin' the streets tonight
Just tryin' to get it right
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 name
I ain't got time for the game, 'cause I need you
Yeah, well, I need you
Oh, I need you, oh, I need you
All this time
