You Can't Hurry Love Lyrics

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 gotta 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 hanging 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 hanging on;
I remember mama said,
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 love don't come easy,
it's a game of give and take
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 when 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
You just have to wait,
She said love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take.
