John Van Deusen - Patient Saint Lyrics

[Verse 1]I found old photos of you in your wedding dressSpinning around in the Pemberton gymNo makeup or flowers or anyone elseJust you being you in your own way[Verse 2]I still recall the pushback in JuneWhen we told the world what we planned to doMy hair thinned when my sister spokeAnd I realized I'd lost the popular vote[Chorus]My GodHow I took you for grantedAnd you still harvest pain that I plantedAnd with the patience of a saint, you wait[Verse 3]You should of thrown me out like a cigaretteBurnt out and used, crushed underfootInstead you opened your generous armsTold me you believed that I could become someone[Chorus]My GodHow I took you for grantedAnd you still harvest pain that I plantedAnd with the patience of a saint, you waitI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everydayI love you more everyday
