You're sleeping now as I'm awake
Across the sea so far away
I can't forget your pretty smile
Your tiny hands who reach for mine

And life takes patience
Patience takes time
I can't get you off my mind
Adeline

The note you wrote I read it still
I swore I would, I always will
So I'll kiss the wind that skims the sea
In hopes it brings you back to me

And life takes patience
Patience takes time
I can't get you off my mind
Adeline

The space between us now
Will all work for the good somehow

And life takes patience
Patience takes time
I can't get you off my mind
Can't get you off my mind
Can't get you off my mind
Adeline
