Patience Is a Virtue

Patience is a virtue

I will name you after patience

Wanting to be there

But being able to wait

Patience is a baby

That I'd really love to give you

So he can take care

'Stead of stayin' out late

I wake up in the mornin'

Take my tea or coffee

Look at the world out the window

Listenin' to church bells

Weddin's

Funerals

Hell of a sound

Want you around

Could this be the answer

Answer to all my confessions

Are you the difference

Between glitter and tears

Or is there still no reason

And I am once more mistaken

Puttin' all my emotions

Into porcelain ears

I wake up in the mornin'

Take my tea or coffee

Look at the world out the window

Listening to church bells

Prayin' for you

Down on my knees

What do I do

Patience is a virtue

I will name you after patience

Patience is a baby

That I'd really love to give you

Blame it on black steeples

And listenin' to church bells ringin'

Or watchin' the people

Passin' me by

Weddings and funerals

Passin' me by
