Practice In Patience

Tell me your secrets And I'll know you well Show me the weakness You're eager to sell While the light in the ocean From the moon on the shore Gives me the notion that I want you more If we're in love That's what we'll say Before it's forgotten or taken away It's a rolling die, it's a gentle rain It's a practice in patience, a partner in pain We've got a lot to lose if we're in love I dream in illusion And all shades of blue And I wake in confusion so scattered with you I'm caught between holding on and pulling away But at the end of the day I've got this feeling I can't shake I've seen the other side of giving up But never gave enough to know
