The Patience Business Songtext
von Something Happens

Been a long time, been a very long time
Been a very long time indeed
Here a long time it′s too long a time
My ears will start to bleed
She keeps me waiting here
She keeps me waiting here

Sitting on my hands to stop myself exploding (Yeah)
I can't get used to this patience business (No)

The seconds grab the minutes say "Where are we being led"
I′m going to have to pinch myself, am I alive or dead
Don't keep me waiting here
Don't keep me waiting here


Sitting on my hands to stop myself exploding (Yeah)
I can′t get used to this patience business (No)

No. No.

Cause I′ve been waiting all alone for you to come
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak
It said "at the tone you will be"
Very much alone

Been a long time been a very long time
He also serves who waits
Been a long time (it's too long a time)
Meet you at heaven′s gates

Sitting on my hands to stop myself exploding (Yeah)
I can't get used to this patience business (No)
