You Can't Hurry Love

I need love, love oh, easy 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
Oh, 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
But 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 break
No, I can’t bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But 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 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!
