The patience of eternity The greatest gift I could ever get You give me life And you take from your own I could only wish To be more like you If you put your hand on my chest You'll feel your soul It's in my heartbeat and it drives me on I know I'm not what you imagined me to be I'm barely a fraction carved out of your heart I'll make you proud I'll stand my ground I know I disappointed you I'll make it right I'll outlast the fight I swear I will honour you If you put your hand on my chest You will feel your soul It's in my heartbeat And it drives me on You give me life And you take from your own The patience of eternity The greatest gift I could ever get I'll make you proud I'll stand my ground I know I disappointed you I'll make it right I'll outlast the fight I swear I will honour you But you cry for me But you lied to protect me I never learned and now I need to face myself I'll make you proud I'll stand my ground I know I disappointed you I'll make it right I'll outlast the fight I swear I will honour you I'll make you proud I'll stand my ground I know I disappointed you
