They say that patience is a virtue
And I believe that's true
Cause I'm patiently waiting for you
My mama told me
To watch the girls you date
She said that good things
Come for those who wait
I don't remember how I met you
But when you touched my soul
I nearly lost my cool
It's by your grace
That I am never lonely
And I'm so grateful
You are my one and only
Good things come
To those who wait
You are my beginning
You are my faith, and it's so good
to have your love by my side,
that's no lie
Once we were born, we never severed
A bond made in heaven,
perfect with no error
And I declare that you saved
me from my weakness, oh baby
You fulfilled your promise
of love and happiness, oh yeah
It's great to tell the world
of all your lovely blessings
I know that you are real
and I don't have to guess
Every moment I rejoice for you,
for you, for you
You are with me in
everything I do
Good things come to those who wait
You are my beginning, you are my fate
And it's so good to have
you by my side
Ain't no lie, baby
They say that patience is a virtue
And I believe that's true
Cause I patiently waited for you
My mama told me
To watch the girls you date
She said, said good things
Come for those who wait
Oh, Lord,
I don't remember how I met you
But when you touched my soul,
I nearly lost my cool
It's by your grace
that I am never lonely
Oh, and I'm so grateful
You are my one and only
Good things come
Through those good ways
You are my beginning
You are my way
And it's so good
To have your love
You're by my side
Ain't no lie, ain't no lie
If I could
Could not marry you
I don't want nobody,
but I'm such a babe
You're all I need, yeah, baby
All I need, yeah, my heart,
and that's no lie
Good things come of the lonesome ways
She brought my spaghetti,
just to prove my point
