Tame Impala Patience Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Has it really been that long?
Did I count the days wrong?
Did we just go back at all
All the way to step one?

[Pre-Chorus]
People ask me all the time
Every time the show's up
"So what you doin' with your luck?"
It ain't givin' up

[Chorus]
Just growin' up in stages
(Lay down no more)
Livin' life in phases
Another season changes
And still my days are shapeless

[Post-Chorus]
I should be flying straight, don't be late
'Cause time waits for no one
I should be flying straight, don't be late
'Cause time takes from everyone

[Bridge]
I've been waiting here
Waiting for the day to come
Take us to the place
Takin' us where we have gone

[Pre-Chorus]
They would ask me all the time
Showin' up in ages
"So what you doin' with your luck?"
Call it givin' up

[Chorus]
I'm just growin' up in stages
(Lay down no more)
Livin' life in phases
Another season changes
And still my ways are aimless, I know
We're growin' up in stages
And I'm runnin' out of pages
Growin' up

[Outro]
I should be flying straight, don't be late
'Cause time waits for no one
I should be flying straight, don't be late
'Cause time takes from everyone
