Young woman, her mother's only child
|
Artificial love bloomed, you became silk flowers
|
When nothing grew from what was never alive
|
You made diamond teardrops fall out of crocodile eyes
|
Did she pull you down?
|
Did that bring you down?
|
Don't let it all get you so far down
|
And let me tell you what old wives say
|
They say patience will heal your pain
|
And let me tell you what a wise man said
|
Oh you'll get broke down, but patience saves
|
|
Something so lovely in its old demise
|
Like golden amber holds butterflies
|
It takes a lifetime to make a pearl that shines
|
From a single grain of hourglass time
|
Was it hard to wait?
|
Was it worth your wait?
|
Baby we'll make it worth our wait
|
And let me tell you what old wives say
|
They say patience will heal your pain
|
And let me tell you what a wise man said
|
Oh you'll get broke down, but patience saves
|
Oh you'll get broke down, but patience saves
|
