"Impatient" is a Pop ballad. The song was released on 9 November 2009 in Finland, as the album's second single.
Lyrical content
"Impatient" is a pop ballad that explores the theme of difficult relationships, where one feels emotionally neglected but sticks around because they still have very strong feelings towards their partner. Abreu sings 'you say you listen but you never do' and 'you make me sad when I'm happy'. However, rather than be deluded, she is fully aware of the negativity the relationship is causing, but is unable to break away due to her love for her partner: 'still I go weak when you just look at me'. The song ends with Abreu providing a clear ultimatum: 'let me love...or let me be free'.
Chart performance
Released only to radio in order to promote the album from which it was lifted, "Impatient" did not chart on the Finnish Top 20 or the Download Chart. It did, however, reach number twenty-one on the Airplay Chart.
