Patiently

I've waited patiently

Hoping that you'd believe

That the lights in our eyes

Are not fading out

They're not yet fading out

Somehow we're safe and sound

Like the glow off the shore

We will hurry



What could I ever do?

What could I say?

To cover up my concerns?

To keep them at bay?

Oh, then she said, "You spend too much time in your head."

What could I ever do?

What could I say so carefully?



Carefully

I followed carefully

Too scared of a scraped knee

So I wait on the sand with her Coppertone

Yeah, she put on Coppertone

And went out there all alone

Never one to be scared or to worry



What could I ever do?

What could I say?

To cover up my concerns?

To keep them at bay?

Oh, then she said, "You spend too much time in your head."

What could I ever do?

What could I say so carefully?
