"Patience"的詞曲作者和演唱者是加拿大女歌手Lene Marlin，歌詞全文如下：
Verse 1:
Can't you see it's written all over my face
I'm wanting you to hold me, comfort me tonight
You say you're feeling anxious
Anxious? You don't even know what's inside
Chorus:
So patience, I don't have the time
You're playing with my heart, now it's time to decide
If you're coming or going
Gotta know right now
Verse 2:
I've given you my all, you don't even take the bait
You say you're looking for something, but you can't find it
It's like you're playing a game with me
And I don't even know if I'm the winner or the loser
Chorus:
So patience, I don't have the time
You're playing with my heart, now it's time to decide
If you're coming or going
Gotta know right now
Bridge:
Can we take a moment and step back, maybe this is happening for a reason
So tell me baby, are you coming or are you running?
Cause I don't have patience
Verse 3:
Now it's over, we both knew it was a chance
It might not be the end of the world, but it was close
You say that it's complicated, that your feelings are so buried
And you can't make it better, maybe it's better to part
Chorus:
So patience, I don't have the time
You're playing with my heart, now it's time to decide
If you're coming or going
Gotta know right now
Outro:
Patience, I don't have patience.
這是一首關於等待和期望的歌曲，表達了對於戀人回應的渴望和耐心耗盡後的失望情緒。
