Patience

words and music by Mark Sandman

I spent all day yesterday watching the grass grow
What I learned is that grass really grows slow
Now Im hanging around trying to get inspired
Punch a hole in my cage and I reach out blind

She said have patience
Everything will be all right
Patience
Give it just a little time
Everything will be all right

I spent all day long sitting at a red light
Cause she told me to give it just a little more time
And I lost my car in a parking lot
Bought a newspaper and I decided to walk

She said have patience
Everything will be all right
Patience
Give it just a little time
Everything will be all right

I spent all day yesterday listening to the church bells ring
Must have been a Sunday, I could hear the choir sing
And down in the graveyard theyre listening to the underground
Theyre the only ones ever learn to calm down

Patience
Everything will be all right
Patience
Give it just a little time
Everything will be all right
Everything will be all right
Everything will be all
Everything will be all right
