They say love is patient
They say love is kind
There's no feeling nor gem
That can match romance divine
They say to love with your being
But you don't hear a caged bird sing
Pace my heart, still my mind
Love is something you leave behind
I love you with my heart, though that's not all
The heart can be broken, so I love you with my soul
Trust me when I tell you, there is Someone up above
If there was not, I could not feel this love
Whispers in the night echo in my ears
When I cry, you're in all my tears
You've wondered how can I love you, and oh how I've yearned
But if there's anything I've learned
Patience is a virtue, more sacred than gold
Temptation may be strong, but on to you I'll always hold
So fall when you're ready, I'll be right here
I'm going nowhere, have no fear
Love as you are, do what you can
And when the time comes, I'll hold your hand
