Jo Schornikow – Patient Lyrics

Patient Lyrics by Jo Schornikow

There’s an understanding; I am there for you
In darkest night when all your worst dreams are passing thru
You crawl into my bed with guilt and guile and innocence and, all the while,I am waiting

I am waiting, I am patient
You’re a dreamer, you’re a doctor, you’re some kind of visionary
You got a secret language; I understand it
You’re creation; I am patient

Won’t you come back baby, don’t you know?
Like a spider sheds it’s skin, you just left clothes,
Oh that’s cold.

Cold and calling; come on, child
Come on, come in, come down, calm down, comfort style
Cue the balance; cue the bind
Cue the questions;
Here’s to figuring it all out sometime

Won’t you come back baby, don’t you know?
Like a spider sheds it’s skin, you just left clothes,
Oh that’s cold.

When you wanted alive, you know I wanted it
Watch you falling in place & now in front of it
Was on the back of the ropes, so glad I followed you
When you wanted alive, you know I wanted you
Seen the face of the world and felt the hands of pressure
Came out of the void just to press against her
Seen the stars burst and, bird, I got to something new
When you wanted alive, you know I wanted you, too.
