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 set up 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
