Patient Eyes- Help getting the girl

[Quadzi]

Ok, I'm kind of trying to do something really awesome for this girl I know... I dated her a little bit 7 or 8 years ago, and we just ran in to each other again... I found her on MySpace (God help us all) and I'm looking for a specific edit of Patient Eyes. If anyone knows what CD it would be on or any place I can find it for her... it'd mean a lot and could possibly give me the extra bit of help I need with her.

In her words:

"There is a version of Patient Eyes that includes a bigger chunk of Father Figure, my favorite part in fact. It's where he sings: "If you are the desert, I'll be the sea, if you ever hunger- hunger for me, whatever you ask for that's what I'll be. . . So when you remember the ones who have lied, who said that they cared but then laughed as you cried, beautiful darling, don't think of me, because all I ever wanted, it's in your eyes baby, baby, and love can't lie. No. . ." If i ever find that version, i will officially be the happiest girl in the world. But so far no, maybe it was only specially done the one time on the radio when i heard it or something."

Only version I know of with different lyrics is the Pete Rock Mix...contains this extra verse...

--Pete Rock Mix Only--
I have yet to conquer my behavior
In my reaction to the helpless vail.
The great addiction to possess what isn't.
Floating ships that refuse to sail.
As mercy's love to the featherless pigeon.
Searchin through life through the blurriest vission.
As mercy's love to the heartless hand.
Its candid rights as if the wrong understand.
--End Pete Rock--

The lyrics you posted don't seem to fit in (lyrically) with the rest of the song...I'll have to ask Be/Giggles about it...

I'd hazard a guess and say he heard a DJ exclusive edit. Someone probably just made an extended version that included more of the sample track.

But... for sure.
