MR. CARTER INSPIRED YET ANOTHER SONG WITH HIS WISE WORDS...

That makes 22...Clint, where are you???
______________________________________________________________________
PATIENT

The wise ones know
That I could learn a lot from time
But I feel so bruised
Sometimes I can barely hold myself up
By wild horses, I am trampled underfoot
In his eyes…I died
To catch a glimpse…a glimmer
Of someplace I knew long ago
And the hope that I’d be part of something big
But I left it on the corner of a crowded city street

I know…the waiting
Is the hardest thing…for me
Waiting…for his returning
If it’s meant to be…it will be
And they say…

You…you just have to be patient
You have to hold on
You have to hold on
Yes, you…you just have to be patient
If you can hold on
This will all be resolved

Time goes slow
When you’re wondering and wishing for the thing you want the most
Sometimes I hide my eyes
And cry in secret
Sometimes his wind blows through my hair just like a ghost
In his smile, I remember
How he held my gaze
Like someone I had always known
In that moment, I would melt into the pavement
But I left him on the corner standing silent and alone

I know…the running
Got me nowhere…but down
Now I’m waiting…for recovering…
What is meant to be
Comes back around

And you...you just have to be patient
You have to hold on
You have to hold on
Yes, you...you just have to be patient
If you can hold on
This will all be resolved

I need to be near him
But first I needed solitude and pain
I needed to be without him
So it would mean that much more to see him again

I know…the waiting
Is almost killing me
Waiting…for his returning
It is meant to be
And so it will be
They say...

You...you just have to be patient
You have to hold on
You have to hold on
Yes, you...you just have to be patient
If you can hold on
This will all be resolved...
