You Can't Hurry Love

[Intro] I need love, love To ease my mind I need to find, find Someone to call mine But mama said [Chorus] "You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait" She said, "Love don't come easy It's a game of give and take" (Can't wait) "You can't hurry love (Ooh, until that day) No, you just have to wait You got to trust, give it time (Love don't come easy) No matter how long it takes" [Verse 1] But how many heartaches Must I stand Before I find a love To let me live again? Right now, the only thing That keeps me hangin' on When I feel my strength Yeah, is almost gone I remember mama said [Chorus] "(You can't hurry love) No, you just have to wait" She said, "Love don't come easy It's a game of give and take" (Can't wait) How long must I wait? (Ooh, until that day) How much more can I take Before loneliness (Love don't come easy) Will cause my heart, heart to break? [Verse 2] 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 These precious words Keeps me hangin' on I remember mama said [Chorus] "(You can't hurry love) No, you just have to wait" She said, "Love don't come easy It's a game of give and take" (Can't wait) "You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait" (Ooh, until that day) She said, "Trust, give it time (Love don't come easy) No matter how long it takes" (Now, break!) [Verse 3] No, 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 To hold me tight [Pre-Chorus] I keep waiting (Can't wait, ooh, until that day) I keep on waiting But it ain't easy (Love don't come easy) It ain't easy, but mama said [Chorus] "You can't hurry love (Ooh, until that day) No, you just have to wait" She said, "Trust, give it time (Love don't come easy) No matter how long it takes" "You can't hurry love (Ooh, until that day) No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy"
