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
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
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 (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 (give and take) 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 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 Mama said just give it time
