It's been weighing on my mind, oh
Seems to be with me all the time, oh
Can't tell if this is real
I thought you were someone to rely on

It's not like you to say
Does sadness pick you to the bone?
Call somebody since nobody stays
I might end up here all alone
In this mad rush

I need some time to work out who this is
I need to know now who I'm dealing with
That's the kind of patience that breaks your heart
Baby, it's me that's taking us apart

Patience, there she goes
Cadence set in stone
Patience, there she goes
Cadence set in stone

It's been weighing on my mind, oh
Seems to be with me all the time, oh
Can't tell if this is real
I thought you were someone to rely on

Now that nothing lasts
Keep hearing that the wintertime is coming back soon
When somebody asks
I hope it's just the summertime you grew attached to

I need some time to work out who this is
I need to know now who I'm dealing with
That's the kind of patience that breaks your heart
Baby, it's me that's taking us apart

Patience, there she goes
Cadence set in stone
Patience, there she goes
Cadence set in stone

Patience, there she goes
Cadence set in stone
Patience, there she goes

I need some time to work out who this is
I need to know now who I'm dealing with
That's the kind of patience that breaks your heart
Baby, it's me that's taking us apart

I need some time to work out who this is
I need to know now who I'm dealing with
That's the kind of patience that breaks your heart
Baby, it's me that's taking us apart
