Roots Circus Lyrics

My Patient Beating Heart

Verse

Say can you remember when, we said that we would never end
Those days are long gone now, we both have moved on our own
But even after all this time, when I think about your smile
Something inside me, remembers how we once were

Chorus

And my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart

Verse

Sometimes I walk by the stairs, were you used to meet me,
where we smoked our first cigarette and laughed at the sunset
Do you still go down where we, used to say we’ll always be
The trail to the park and the tree by the water

Chorus

And my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart

Verse

Tell me do you still recall, how we stood above it all
Nothing could change us, this world was our - playground
But as certain as the sun, everything will change with time
Like snow turns to water, or silence to laughter

Chorus

And my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart
So my patient, beating heart, - still waits for you, it never stopped
Until today, and from the start, - it never knew we were apart

And my restless, worried mind, I have been lost but know I find
All the things I left behind, I’ve done for you, yes you’re the one
And my kind and loving eyes, still looks for you until they find
That you are mine, yes you are mine, when will you come back to my life
Yes you are mine, yes you are mine…
