about

The card game of 'patience'. One more try. And then another.

lyrics

Patience

The time has passed, the chance has gone,
When all of my hopes and ropes were hung;
Get into a car and drive.

Where do lovers go to pass the hours,
Together?

They’ll never get it out.
They never will get out.

What happens when you stand still in a queue?
The others in the line refuse to overtake you.
Trade in the angst for a salary;
How much to show you care?

What happens when you stand still in a queue?
What happens when you wear a uniform?
My national uniform?

They’ll never get it out.
They never will get out.
They’ll never get it out.
They’ll never get it out.

Sweep a small grin into the corners, lift up your eyes,
To the welcome wall.
A patch of ground, a clearing in the town,
Their eyes were watered by the wine.

They’ll never get it out.
They never will get out.
They’ll never get it out.
