You always go away and do the things you wanna do
I think you're tryin' to hurt me all you can
You'll be working on that problem for a long long time
You'll find that I'm a very patient man
There are times I think you want me just to say goodbye
With you I think it's some kind of a plan
To see how long it takes me to let my patience go
But you'll find that I'm a very patient man
I can see that you can't see how much that I love you
You know that I'll keep hangin' in till all your love is through
So go ahead and do the things that satisfy your mind
But I'll tell you exactly where you stand
Your passing friends will use you up then they won't have the time
Then you'll find that I'm a very patient man
You're gonna find that I'm a very patient man
