Practice In Patience

(album: Dogs - 2011)

Tell me your secrets
And I'll know you well
Show me the weakness
You're eager to sell
While the light in the ocean
From the moon on the shore
Gives me the notion that I want you more

If we're in love
That's what we'll say
Before it's forgotten or taken away
It's a rolling die, it's a gentle rain
It's a practice in patience, a partner in pain
We've got a lot to lose if we're in love

I dream in illusion
And all shades of blue
And I wake in confusion so scattered with you

If we're in love
That's what we'll say
Before it's forgotten or taken away
It's a rolling die, it's a gentle rain
It's a practice in patience, a partner in pain
We've got a lot to lose if we're in love

I'm caught between holding on and pulling away
But at the end of the day
I've got this feeling I can't shake
I've seen the other side of giving up
But never gave enough to know

If we're in love
That's what we'll say
Before it's forgotten or taken away
It's a rolling die, it's a gentle rain
It's a practice in patience, a partner in pain

If we're in love
That's what we'll say
Before it's forgotten or taken away
We've got a lot to lose if we're in love
