Tonight we stand by the door Waiting for amends I’ve lived all this time for love Tonight you come With no suit and no suitcase in your hand I couldn’t wait until the day is done I never thought that I would be the one who could deal with so much waiting I never count but look at me now, I see the time I should be saving O hasty patience help me get around, tell me what I should be taking Cause I’ve been setup in a situation where I’m terribly mistaken Tonight we look into the eyes of the strangers we’ve become With that we lift the weight of time Tonight we say the words that are due to each other Can you pretend like you lived one life for my love? Thought I was tough to never care enough about what everybody’s sayin’ Waiting on the world to take you away while I remain in where I’m staying O hasty patience help me let it out, don’t like the way that I’m behaving Thought I was right but look at us now cause we are terribly mistaken
