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
oh you`ll just have to wait
she said love dont come easy
its a game of give and take
you cant 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 hanging on
when I feel my strength, yeah is almost gone
I remember mama said
no you can`t hurry love
you`ll just have to wait
she said love don`t come easy
its 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 keep me hanging on
I remember mama said
you can`t hurry love
oh, you`ll just have to wait
she said love don`t come easy
its 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
you know love, love dont 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 aint easy, it aint 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
oh you`ll just have to wait
she said love don`t come easy
its a game of give and take
