The Impatient Years Lyrics

We're going through the impatient years
The years when the day seems twice as long
Restless and sighing and laughing and crying
And dreaming a dream people say is wrong

But we'll journey through the impatient years
To each other's arms where we belong
Clinging together, I'm certain we'll weather
The warm and stormy gay and impatient years

But we'll journey through the impatient years
To each other's arms where we belong
Clinging together, I'm certain we'll weather
The warm and stormy gay and impatient years

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
