Lyrics
One night long ago
Sitting on my Daddy's knee
I said: I'm so sad and lonely
And I guess that's how I'll always be
He said: Stop don't you cry
Cause you know your time will come
You've gotta learn to walk
Before you try to run
He told me: Patience
Is all you really need to pray for
Cause you're oh, so sweet
And you're looking fine
Soon someday you'll be turning away
The boys from your door
And you'll see that's the way it'll be
It's just a matter of time
Time rolls by
I saw my life beginning to change
I grew up and made some friends
And started having fun
But I told Mama somehow
That loneliness still causes me pain
I tell myself I'm waiting
For that special one
She told me: Patience
Is all you really need to pray for
Cause your beauty is rare
A very special kind
Enjoy your life soon you'll be a wife
With a man to care for
You'll see that's the way it'll be
It's just a matter of time
Then one day you came along
You seemed to step right out of my dream
When I saw you my troubles were through
All my worries were left behind
But you say you gotta wait
Still it's not as long as it seems
Till the day we're one
And you always will be mine
You tell me: Patience
Is all you really need to pray for
A girl like you is oh, so hard to find
So I know I'll never let you go
You're the love I live for
Soon you'll see that's the way it'll be
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time.
