Patience

Patience was written after the members of Take That reunited, making it one of the first songs they wrote together after reconnecting. The lyrics reflect the healing process and the time it takes to overcome past hardships and pain. It was influenced by the personal experiences of the band members, particularly the challenges they faced during their time apart.
