歌詞

[this song has only been performed live] well patiently you slipped away from me i want that day back, i want that day back but so patiently i went home that night and i sat down to write but i couldn't think of anything to write that night i said but patiently you just went away oh god i want you back oh god i miss you my friend oh so patiently oh so patiently you slipped away that day i never got the chance to say you're my boy patiently i never got to say i miss those times, oh i do patiently you went away that night and i just sat and sighed oh god i miss you my friend oh so patiently all this silence turns to patience and this patience has returned to silence all this silence has turned to patience oh so patiently you touched us, you left us with silence when you were here, there never was silence you slipped away that day into silence but i can't for the life of me figure out why that day fell too silence when you were with us there wasn't a moment of silence and this silence has turned to patience and this patience has returned to silence but oh so patiently you slipped away from me oh god i want you back oh god i miss you my friend oh so patiently
