Patient

Jump the gun
Tend to run
Off at the mouth, I see that it's
In your eyes
Read the signs
Breathing in deep, you're waiting to
Le-le-le-le-le-le-let me know
Find the beauty in the letting go
To hurry up and learn to take it slow
I'm trying to be patient
I tell myself remember
Remember to breathe
I'm trying to be patient
So won't you please be patient
Be patient with me
'Cause it don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa
It don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Don't be hard on me
Know that I
Tend to fly
Through all these steps, that's why I
Give too much
Then, not enough
My mind is racing and I can't keep up so
Le-le-le-le-le-le-let me know (let me know)
Find the beauty in the letting go (whoa)
To hurry up and learn to take it slow
I'm trying to be patient (to be patient)
I tell myself remember
Remember to breathe (hey, yeah)
I'm trying to be patient
So won't you please be patient (oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
Be patient with me
'Cause it don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa (no, it don't)
It don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa (no, it don't)
It don't come easily (don't come easily)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
It don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa (no, it don't, yeah)
Don't be hard on me
Le-le-le-le-le-le-let me know
Find the beauty in the letting go
To hurry up and learn to take it slow
I'm trying to be patient (I'm trying to be)
I tell myself remember (ber, ber)
Remember to breathe
I'm trying to be patient (I'm trying to)
So won't you please be patient
Be patient with me (yeah)
'Cause it don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa (yeah)
It don't come easily (oh hey)
Whoa, whoa, whoa
It don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa (won't you please be patient with me)
It don't come easily
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Don't be hard on me
