1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
(whistle)
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
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 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


(whistle)
...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 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, BUT I NEED YOU
OO, I NEED YOU
WHOA, I NEED YOU

OO, ALL THIS TIME
(ah)
