Lyrics
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 (Hoo)
No, you’ll just have to wait
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes”[Verse 1]
How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again?
Right now, the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh, it’s almost gone
I remember Mama said[Chorus]
“(You can’t hurry love)
No, you’ll just have to wait”
She said, “Love don’t come easy
It’s a game of give and take”
How long must I wait? (Hoo)
And how much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break?
