my patient beating heart

Roots Circus

Say can you remember when
We said that we would never end
Those days are long gone now
We both have moved on our own
But even after all this time
When I think about your smile
Something inside me
Remembers how we once were

And my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart

Sometimes I walk by the stairs
Were you used to meet me
Where we smoked our first cigarette
And laughed at the sunset
Do you still go down where we
Used to say we'll always be
The trail to the park
And the tree by the water

And my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart

Tell me do you still recall
How we stood above it all
Nothing could change us
This world was our - playground
But as certain as the sun
Everything will change with time
Like snow turns to water
Or silence to laughter

And my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart
Still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start
It never knew we were apart

And my restless, worried mind
I have been lost but know I find
All the things I left behind
I've done for you, yes you're the one
And my kind and loving eyes
Still looks for you until they find
That you are mine, yes you are mine
When will you come back to my life
Yes you are mine, yes you are mine
