I need love, love to ease my mindI need to find, find someone to call mineBut mama said you can’t hurry loveNo you just have to waitShe said love don’t come easyIt’s a game of give and takeYou can’t hurry loveNo, you just have to waitYou gotta trust, give it timeNo matter how long it takesBut how many heartaches must I standBefore I find a love to let me live againRight now the only thing that keeps me hanging onWhen I feel my strength, yeah, it’s almost goneI remember mama said
No, you just have to waitShe said love don’t come easyIt’s a game of give and takeHow long must I wait? How much more can I take?Before loneliness will ’cause my heart, heart to breakNo, I can’t bear to live my life aloneI grow impatient for a love to call my ownBut when I feel that I, I can’t go onThese precious words keeps me hanging onI remember mama said
