We're going through the
impatient years
The years when the day seems
twice as long
Restless and sighing and
laughing and crying
And dreaming a dream people say
is wrong
But we'll journey through the
impatient years
To each other's arms where we
belong, clinging together
I'm certain we'll weather
the warm and stormy day and impatient
year
But we'll journey through the
impatient years
To each other's arms where we
belong, clinging together
I'm certain we'll weather the
warm and stormy day and impatient year.
