Here we are, my hand on your shoulder Flowers droop and bend there in the corner Here you are, another day older The clock ticks on the wall Pushin' you further, and further If love is patient If love is always kind It lasts forever Why do I feel left behind? It doesn't envy And it's always true It never fails us So what do you do when it fails you? Not much to say, I sit here beside you People come and go, do they always remind you Of the look in your lover's eyes, fireworks on 4th of July? The touch of your mothers hand, and all that we had planned I meant everything I said to you, mine is patient, mine is true The only flaw of love is that there's never ever, ever, ever enough If love is patient If love is always kind It lasts forever Why do I feel left behind? It doesn't envy And it's always true It never fails us So what do you do when it fails you? What do you do when it fails you?
