One, two,
one, two, three, four(whistle)
Shed a tear 'cause
I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when
I wasn't sureBut 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, mm... yeah
I sit here on the stairs 'cause I'd rather be aloneIf
I can't have you right now,
I'll wait, dearSometimes
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, oh,
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...)
I've been walking the streets at night
Just tryin' to get it right (need some patience, yeah...)
It's hard to see with so many around
You know, I don't like being stuck in the crowd (could use some patience, yeah...)
And the streets don't change but, baby, the names
I ain't got time for the game (gotta have some patience, yeah...)'
Cause I need you yeah, yeah, but I need you, ooh...
(all it takes is patience, yeah...)
I need you, ooh...
(just a little patience, ooh...)
I need you, ooh...
(is all you need)
This time...
