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
Mmm, 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

Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah, need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah, some more patience, yeah

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 streest 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, oh, I need you, whoa, I need you
All this thime
