(1,2,1,2,3,4)
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you,
I'm still all right 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,
It'll work itself out fine.
All we need is just a little patience,
Said, sugar, make it slow.
And we come together fine,
All we need is just a little patience.
(Patience)
Mm, yeah

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 thing's will be just fine,
You and I just use a litle patience,
Said, sugar take the time,
'Cause the lights are shinin' bright,
You and I got what it takes to make it,
We won't fake it,
Oh, never brake it,
'Cause I can't take it,

...Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah,
Need a little patience, yeah.
Just a little patience, yeah,
Some more patience, yeah.
Need some patience, yeah,
Could use some patience, yeah.
Gotta have some patience, yeah,
All it takes is patience.
Just a little patience,
Is all you need

I've been walkin' the streets at night,
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 baby the name,
I ain't got time for the game.
'Cause I need you,
Yeah, yeah, bit I need you.
Oooh, I need you,
Whoa, I need you.
Oooh, all this time
Ah
