You Can't Hurry Love

For some tender arms

Before loneliness will cause my heart
I remember mama said
These precious words keeps me hangin' on

No, you just have to wait
How long must I wait?
She said, "Love don't come easy
You can't hurry love
No, you just have to wait"
Someone to call mine
It's a game of give and take"
No, you just have to wait
No matter how long it takes
It's almost gone

I grow impatient for a love to call my own
She said, "To trust, give it time

You can't hurry love
Must I stand before
She said, "Love don't come easy
No I can't bear to live my life alone
Right now the only thing
"No, you just have to wait"

That keeps me hangin' on

But how many heartaches
She said, "Trust, give it time

"You can't hurry love
Heart to break?

No, love, love, don't come easy
But I keep on waiting
You can't hurry love
To hold me tight
I find a love
To talk to me at night
I keep waiting, I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
"No, you just have to wait"
But it ain't easy, it ain't easy
No, you just have to wait"
No matter how long it takes"
To let me live again
She said, "Love don't come easy
You got to trust, give it time
But mama said
"You can't hurry love
It's a game of give and take"
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
But mama said
When I feel my strength, yeah
I remember mama said
It's a game of give and take"
I need to find, find
She said, "Love don't come easy
No matter how long it takes"

No, you just have to wait
How much more can I take
