Lyrics

Holding Pattern

I?m told
Patience is a virtue. But now
I?m on hold
And I?m going crazy waiting for you.

I?m in
a holding pattern
holdin on to
mem?ries, old mem?ries of you.

You may be
The home town hero
You and me,
We go back much further
I know you have your
Duty to fulfill
So I?m holding on still.

I read
Letters from you from overseas
You lead
Men to safety showing them ways...
~
Teaching freedom and compassion
Modeling your heroism
Helicopter holding pattern
I pray you?re safely returned.

I wait
On this home front holding us down
I hate
Missing you when you?re not around

I?m told
Patience is a virtue. And I?m
Still on hold
And I?m going to keep waiting for you.

I?m in
a holding pattern
holdin on to you. (2X)
