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 just have to wait You've got to just, give it time No matter how long it takes
But, 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, 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 must I take Before loneliness, will cause my heart, heart to break?
No, I cant bare 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 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) When mama said
When 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 She said love don't come easy it's a game of give and take
