Patience

With you I have never felt so alive
Deeper into this relationship I would like to dive
I don't like to be alone
And I think you feel the same way

But I know that day
You got hurt
Please move on
That boy is long gone

Let us take this slow
It is the smart way to go
So this I will not let you know
My love for you is starting to grow
