"No, you just have to wait"
To let me live again
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
You got to trust, give it time
You can't hurry love
It's a game of give and take"
To talk to me at night
How much more can I take
No, you just have to wait
When I feel my strength, yeah
It's a game of give and take"
I need to find, find
She said, "Love don't come easy
She said, "To trust, give it time
It's almost gone
"No, you just have to wait"
For some tender arms
These precious words keeps me hangin' on
I remember mama said
But mama said
"You can't hurry love
But how many heartaches
Before loneliness will cause my heart
Someone to call mine
"You can't hurry love
Anticipating for that soft voice
No matter how long it takes
You can't hurry love
Right now the only thing
No, love, love, don't come easy
No, you just have to wait"
She said, "Trust, give it time
But it ain't easy, it ain't easy
I find a love
She said, "Love don't come easy
No matter how long it takes"
That keeps me hangin' on
You can't hurry love
It's a game of give and take"
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
She said, "Love don't come easy
But mama said
She said, "Love don't come easy
I keep waiting, I keep on waiting
No matter how long it takes"
No I can't bear to live my life alone
I remember mama said
Must I stand before
But I keep on waiting
No, you just have to wait"
To hold me tight
Heart to break?
No, you just have to wait
No, you just have to wait
How long must I wait?
