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 sure
But 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 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, oh, I'll never break it
'Cause I can't take it"
