Patience

If I never leave a history

Music © Copyright Skutch - Lyrics © Copyright Patience

There are times I wonder if time stood still

would I be safe from tomorrow

Will I stay in one spot - or maybe not

maybe tomorrow is better

Fear to fall yet drawn to dare

warning your getting too close to the edge

Who is this stranger staring back at me

where have I gone - I don’t remember leaving

This haven of history repeating itself

better the devil I know

And just when I thought I had it all figured out

my thoughts wandered another path

and the din of the crowd won’t shut them out

Why do I try to put the pieces in place

when the windows view has changed its face

I want to go to a better place

this day is history

How would I know how to forgive in my mind

if I never leave yesterday behind

and how would I know

where it is I have to go - or where I want to stay

There’d be no point to dreaming a dream

how would I ever learn about me

how would I know how good it could be

I would never have another memory

to remember

If I never left a history - in my life
