Lyrics Nerina Pallot

Nerina Pallot

Patience

Been good, been bad, got worse, got better

I feel I know myself when I'm looking in the mirror

Been hurt, been loved - I'm scarred, I'm not bitter

I'm an angel with knowledge of a sinner

But what do I do and how should I be?

When I look at myself I can only be me

I need a little patience...

Been hard, been soft, been both, been neither

Above it all I am only a survivor

Been down, been low, got up, got higher

We are only human, all just liars

So I wait for the day when I open my eyes

And I look to myself but it's no big surprise

I need a little patience...

Well I'm sitting here and sinking

And I'm on the 18th floor

And I'm thinking do I jump?

Or should I stay around for more?

I watch my friends get bigger and get better and get richer

But I'm not bitter

Time I ticking ticking ticking ticking ticking on

With a vengeance

I want it all

I want it all

I need a little patience.....
