Patience Lyrics - Singles - Sheila Nicholls

Patience a silent virtue 

I don't want to hurt you 

Reflex to old imprinting 

Your eyes are squinting 

And it seems I'm not what you wanted me to be 

Now I know I'm not what I said that I was 

I just wanted this to be true, I'm not sure where I went 

But you deserve someone more innocent 

I searched for reasons to it 

Four seasons through it 

You came quite unexpected 

So unprotected 

And it seems I'm not what you wanted me to be 

Now I know I'm not what I said that I was 

I just wanted this to be true, I'm not sure where I went 

But you deserve someone more innocent 

I'll just prove to myself that I cannot be trusted 

Maybe I'm too much like my father 

And if you knew him you would know 

He's still searching for his mother 

And every other but mine 

Whatever is still searching in him 

Is still searching in me 

'Cause I'm still looking for here albeit vicariously 

We spoke with such conviction 

Imprisoned freedom
