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 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 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 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
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, "Trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes"
You can't hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love, "Don't come easy
But It's a game of give and take"
