Lyrics:
Along the fields of straw and stover
Clocked in 'til the work day's over
Time’s a gentle stream, longer than it seems
Patient is the night
How I long to see her face now
Her starry moonlit gaze now
I know she’s never late, still anxiously I wait
Patient is the night
(Whistling~)
I know she's never late, still anxiously I wait
Patient is the night.
