You Can't Hurry Love

I need love, love, to ease my mind

I need to find, find someone to call mine

But Momma 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 Momma 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 must 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 can’t go on

These precious words keeps me hanging on

I remember Momma 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

She said trust, give it time

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 Momma said

You cant 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
