|
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 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 just have to wait |
|
You got to trust, give it time |
|
No matter how long it takes |
|
But how many heartaches must |
|
I standBefore |
|
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 saidYou 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 |
|
How long must |
|
I wait?How much more can |
|
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 |
|
But when I feel that |
|
I, I can't go on |
|
These precious words keeps me hangin' on |
|
I remember |
|
Mama saidYou 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 |
|
You can't hurry love |
|
No, you just have to wait |
|
She said trust, give it time |
|
No matter how long it takes |
|
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 |
|
I keep waiting, |
|
I keep on waiting |
|
But it ain't easy, it ain't easy |
|
But Mama said |
|
You can't hurry love |
|
No, you just have to wait |
|
She said to trust, give it time |
|
No matter how long it takes |
|
You can't hurry love |
|
