You Can't Hurry Love

I need love, love to ease my mind

I need to find, find someone to call mine

But 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

I can't hurry love

No, you'll just have to wait

You gotta just give it time

No matter how long it takes

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, 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 can I take

Before loneliness

Will cause my heart, heart to break

Now 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 keep me hangin' on

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

I can't hurry love

No, you'll just have to wait

She said just give it time

No matter how long it takes

(Gotta wait)

No love, love don't come easy

But I keep on waitin'

Anticipating for that soft voice

To talk to me at night

For some tender arms

To hold me tight

I keep waiting

Keep on waitin' (for that day)

But it ain't easy yeah

It ain't easy

But mama said

You can't hurry love

No, you'll just have to wait

She said just give it time

No matter how long it takes

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

You can't hurry love

No, you'll just have to wait

She said just give it time

No matter how long it takes

You can't hurry love

No, you'll just have to wait
