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)

   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,

                                                                                              I'll never break it
