lyrics

You sat me at the table by the sink

Nine-fifteen, blue mug, your pen in hand

You showed me twice, then let me think

My shaky note would somehow understand

You never laughed when I got it wrong

You just slid the page back to me slow

Your fingers tapped the rhythm long

On the yellow edge of the note pad glow

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I’m trying to learn your way

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I keep getting in my own way

Your cereal bowl left a ring of rust

On the chipped white plate by the oven door

You said, "Again," like it mattered to us

And I counted my breaths on the tile floor

You never sighed, you just moved my wrist

Like a locksmith turning a bent-up key

The fan kept clicking in the mist

Of my bad little hurt you kept letting be

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I’m trying to learn your way

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I keep getting in my own way

At midnight, the fridge made a tired hum

I found your pencil under the couch

You left the page where the corners curled up

And I traced every line with my mouth

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I’m trying to learn your way

Be patient, be patient, be patient, be patient

I keep getting in my own way
