Patiently,
|
You slipped away from me.
|
It's not alright
|
you couldn't put up no fight.
|
But patiently,
|
the well ran dry.
|
You needed more water,
|
you needed more.
|
But patiently,
|
you slipped away from me.
|
Oh, God I want you back.
|
Oh, God I miss you my friend,
|
oh so patiently
|
|
Patiently,
|
I went home that night
|
and i sat down to write.
|
But I couldnt think of anything to write that night.
|
Patiently, you took it all with you.
|
The sun, the moon, the stars
|
are nuthin without you.
|
But patiently,
|
you slipped away
|
Oh, God we want you back.
|
Oh, God we miss you our friend,
|
oh so patiently.
|
|
You fell into silence,
|
I hate all this silence.
|
It leaves me patient.
|
And this patience has breeded such violence.
|
Oh I hate all this violence.
|
Oh, God we miss you our friend,
|
but so patiently.
|
|
I will never forget it,
|
as long as I live,
|
the feel that went through the bar,
|
you're not there.
|
Pick up the phone,
|
they told me you were gone.
|
I wish I wish I was dreaming,
|
but im wide awake.
|
When we got to her house,
|
everybody was there.
|
Amazes me how you can bring us all together.
|
Patience, you leave me here.
|
How can you expect me to thrive?
|
Patiently, oh I wait fot you.
|
There's not life unless you're alive.
|
This patience, this patience, this patience
|
is silence.
|
This patience, this silence, oh this silence.
|
We love you our friend, wait so patiently.
