The Perfect Kiss

Trying Your Patience

"Slow down

Can you wait for me?"

Is all I've ever asked of you

"Give me some more time to be

Sure I'm still in love with you"

 

But that's the problem:

If I need to check before I throw myself into you

 

So now, after all, here I go and then

Trying your patience again

Saying, "can we wait?"

The clock on the wall still reminds me I'm trying your patience again

But it's too late for that

 

Shadows of doubt in my mind

You cast them with your violent words

Feelings I just can't erase

Moments tainted by the curse

 

And that's the issue:

If I can't commit, then where does that leave us?

 

So now, after all, here I go and then

Trying your patience again

Saying, "can we wait?"

The clock on the wall still reminds me I'm trying your patience again

But it's too late for that
