[Verse 1]
We go too far back
You wouldn't leave me now
To find someone like that
It wouldn't be easy now

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I've been thinking about
Getting drunk again
At the same house where it all started
And I love you so much that I didn't care
When you stained the carpet
Finding your clothes 'cause you know I stole them
You know I own them now
It's how it's gonna be, face it

[Chorus]
Loving me takes patience
Will you think about us as I'm leaving?
Think about us as I'm coming home
You hate it, but loving me takes patience
So we lose touch when I'm faded
And it can get dark but still, I know
You're waiting
Loving me takes patience
[Verse 2]
We've had every fight
There is no score to keep
Chased down every sidewalk
You're walking home with me
Talking 'bout honesty

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been thinking about
Getting drunk again
At the same house where it all started
And I love you so much, going up the stairs
At your new apartment
It's how it's gonna be, face it

[Chorus]
Loving me takes patience
Will you think about us as I'm leaving?
Think about us as I'm coming home
You hate it, but loving me takes patience
So we lose touch when I'm faded
And it can get dark but still, I know
You're waiting
Loving me takes patience

[Bridge]
No one else could care
It's a waste of time
To pretend I'd find someone out there
I wouldn't scare
'Cause loving me takes patience
[Chorus]
Will you think about us as I'm leaving?
Think about us as I'm coming home
You hate it, but loving me takes patience
And we lose touch when I'm faded
And it can get dark but still, I know
You're waiting
Loving me takes patience

[Outro]
You wouldn't leave me now
