I need love, love, ooh to ease my mind
And I need to find, time someone to call mine, my mama said
Chorus:
You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy, but it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait
Just trust on my good times, no matter how long it takes
But how many heartaches must I stand
Before I find a love to let me live again
'Cos right now the only thing that keeps me hangin' on
I feel my strength, you know it's almost gone, I remember mama said
You can't hurry love, oh 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
Now I can't bear to live my life alone
I've grown impatient for a love to call my own
And when I feel that I, I can't go on
what these questions worth I keep hangin' on, I remember mama
said
Chorus
Now BREAK,now love, love don't come easy
But I'll 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, ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy, you know it ain't easy, and my mama said
Chorus
