I need love, love To ease my mind I need to find, find someone to call mine But mama said You cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love dont come easy Its a game of give and take You cant 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 Its almost gone I remember mama said: You cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love dont 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 cant bear to live my life alone I grow impatient for a love to call my own But when I feel that i, I cant go on These precious words keeps me hangin on I remember mama said: You cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love dont come easy Its a game of give and take You cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said trust, give it time No matter how long it takes No, 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 cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes You cant hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love dont come easy Its a game of give and take
