Patience

Early in the morning, just by the break of day Well that's when my patience went away She took her bags but she left all her clothes She took her keys and left me out in the cold Wearing a plastic coat And the pressures of life through lack of patience I get the pressures of her Patience is a girl that I hate to love the way I do, but I do She wakes me up in the morning through squeaking in my dreams She took her bags but she left all her clothes She took her keys and left me out in the cold All because of patience I get the pressures of life through lack of patience I get the pressures of her She beat me up and left me out in the pouring rain Without no keys, without no reason to go back again She left me empty-handed, she left me empty-hearted Not no money, not nothing but the blues All because of patience I get the pressures of life through lack of patience I get the pressures of her She said the one thing that she needs is happiness I don't believe that she's happy 'til she sees that I'm in distress No, all because of patience I get the pressures of life through lack of patience I get the pressures of her And I swoon --- Patience - Lloyd Cole and Lloyd Cole and the Commotions
