If I Have To Wait (The Patient Pursuit)
by T-Jay

Verse 1:

She walks in beauty,
Beyond a night time display, the array of a starry sky
And her beauty truly comes from
the lady that lives inside

She's set apart from the rest,
Her charm, oooo it's marvelous yes! Yes!
Breath, stolen, she is a treasure
And I just wanna guard the chest and so

Chorus:

If I have to wait, it doesn't matter,
I wanna patiently pursue you
If I have to wait, I know it's worth it,
Cause now that I found you, I'm no longer searchin' and
I wanna chase your heart, and pursue your affection
I wanna know who you are, and fight for your protection
If I have to wait

Verse 2:

I wanna show you security,
and shelter your purity,
I relish your elegance, I honor your modesty
I cherish your honesty,

And it was destined by God that I found you,
but I'm still always nervous around you
And I remember the day that we met
your eyes captivated me I could never forget

I'm dedicated, devoted to knowin' you,
I'm celebrating every moment that we grow in tune..
And I'll admit, I don't know a whole lot about love,
but I know enough to know when it's true and so

Chorus:

If I have to wait, it doesn't matter,
I wanna patiently pursue you
If I have to wait, I know it's worth it,
Cause now that I found you, I'm no longer searchin' and
I wanna chase your heart, and pursue your affection
I wanna know who you are, and fight for your protection
If I have to wait

Verse 3:

I love letters, and so I rub 'em together to form this
form of a letter born with love at the center
And I don't care if you're shy, it doesn't bother me,
We can take it one step at a time, that's how it ought to be

'Cause a true man, he's called to action
and he's fashioned to balance attraction with passion!
So lady I wanna earn your trust, learn what I must,
I'd rather return to dust than to cause you to burn with lust

I wanna surrender my pride, I wanna be noble,
gentle and tender, I wanna remember that a man can cry...
How rich am I?! To walk by your side,
and patiently pursue you, you're the prize so

Chorus:

If I have to wait, it doesn't matter,
I wanna patiently pursue you
If I have to wait, I know it's worth it,
Cause now that I found you, I'm no longer searchin' and
I wanna chase your heart, and pursue your affection
I wanna know who you are, and fight for your protection
If I have to wait
