How long do I have to wait?
Before I can tell you the things I´ve been wanting to say
How long must I hesitate?

I know it makes sense but it´s hard for me to stay away
But if this is how it has to be
Maybe it´s just a feeling
That I could name
But I´d probably best blame...impatience

You can´t miss - what you´ve never known
It´s quite absurd how you started disturbing me so
Sometimes - when I am all alone
I lose my senses
I have no defences to go

But if this is how I lose my heart
Then I shall just embrace that
My pulse is racing still
I´m secretly thrilled
By the laughter that tumbled
And the tears that I spilled
As far as I know no one ever got killed
By impatience

Tell me - is there danger still?
I took no heed so a word might as well be deed
Although - I´d really like to see you now
I´m almost certain it can´t be accomplished with speed

So, if this is how I´ll bide my time
Then I will set it down
Til we lose our caution
I´ll honour your order
´Cos it´s such sweet torture
To carry this torch
In the light of temptation
Beyond conversation and all expectation
Pausing a moment or two just to mention...
Impatience
