You Can’t Hurry Love
Lyrics
I need love, love oh ease my mind
And I need to find time someone to call mine
My mama said, "You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "Love don't come easy but it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time no matter how long it takes
How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh it's almost gone
I remember mama said, "You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait"
She said "Love don't come easy, it's a game of give and take"
How long must I wait, how much more must I take
Before loneliness will cause my heart, heart to break
No, I can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
Oh when I feel that I, I can't go on
Well these precious words keep me hanging on
I remember mama said, "You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait"
She said "Love don't come easy, but it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes
Now wait
Now love, love don't come easy
But I keep on waiting anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms
Hold me tight
I keep waiting
Ooh till that day
But it ain't easy no, you know it ain't easy oh
My mama said, "You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait"
She said "Love don't come easy but it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love no, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time no matter how long it takes now wait
