I’ve been holding on for eternity
Waiting on your love
I let you lead me on so perfectly
Well I think I’ve had enough

I’m tired of dancing around it
I’m not wired that way
I’m getting fired up thinking about it
I’ve gotta be honest

I ain’t never been a patient girl, baby
I ain’t built like this
The way you’re taking your time’s got me jumping ship
And I won’t lie, let’s call this what it is:
An impatient girl waiting on an empty wish.

Baby, I’m allowed to want an answer now
Wouldn’t you say that’s fair?
Can you help me out, ’cause I’m breaking down?
Do you even care?

I’m losing my mind every minute
Don’t you do me like that
Don’t you know you’re pushing my heart to the limit
Won’t you listen?

I ain’t never been a patient girl, baby
I ain’t built like this
The way you’re taking your time’s got me jumping ship
And I won’t lie, let’s call this what it is:
An impatient girl waiting on an empty wish.

I won’t spend the rest of my life
Hoping for a sign
You can’t just leave me out to dry

I ain’t built like this
The way you’re taking your time’s got me jumping ship
And I won’t lie, let’s call this what it is:
An impatient girl waiting on an empty wish.

I ain’t built like this
The way you’re taking your time’s got me jumping ship
And I won’t lie, let’s call this what it is:
An impatient girl waiting on an empty wish.

I ain’t no patient girl,
I ain’t no patient girl,
I ain’t a patient girl,
An impatient girl waiting on an empty wish.
