IF PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE
THEN THAT'S MY MIDDLE NAME
YOU CAN SPIN ME ROUND
PUSH ME DOWN
BUT I WONT DO THIS AGAIN
ALL THAT I HAVE GIVEN
THE MORE THAT THEY STILL TAKE
TIE ME TO THE RULES AGAIN
WELL THATS MY LAST MISTAKE
AND I WONT DO THIS AGAIN
I DONT WANT TO WALK
THROUGH LIFE AGAIN
WITHOUT A FRIEND
I WONT WALK THROUGH LIFE
WITHOUT A FRIEND

NO IIII
WONT DO THIS AGAIN
I DONT WANT TO BE ALONE
IN THE END
SO COME ON PATIENCE
I NEED YOU PATIENCE
SO HOLD ME PATIENCE
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU

COME ON PATIENCE
I NEED YOU PATIENCE
SO HOLD ME PATIENCE
IVE BEEN WAITING  PATIENCTLY FOR YOU

AND I WONT DO THIS AGAIN
DONT WANT TO WALK 
THROUGH MY LIFE ALONE
WITHOUT A FRIEND 

SO IF PATIENCE IS A VIRTURE
HELL YES THATS MY MIDDLE NAME
YOU CAN TIE ME TO YOUR RULES AGAIN
BUT IM TIRED OF PLAYING YOUR GAME
FOR ALL THAT I HAVE GIVEN
THE MORE THAT THEY STILL TAKE
YOU CAN SPIN ME ROUND
PUSH ME DOWN
THATS MY LAST MISTAKE
CAUSE I WONT DO THIS AGAIN
SO COME ON PATIENCE
I NEED YOU PATIENCE
PLEASE HOLD ME PATICENCE
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU
COME ON PATIENCE
I NEED YOU PATIENCE
SO HOLD ME PATIENCE
IVE BEEN WAITING  PATIENCTLY FOR YOU

HOW FAR IS IT TO HEAVEN
HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO WAIT
WILL THE ANGELS TAKE ME THEIR
OR AM I A BIT TO LATE

FOR ALL THE I HAVE GIVEN
THE MORE THAT YOU WILL TAKE
YOU CAN PUSH ME AROUND
AND THROW ME DOWN
BUT I WONT DO THIS AGAIN
