I need love, love to ease my mind I need to find someone to call mine, but mama 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 mama 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 can I take Before loneliness will 'cause my heart, heart to break?
No, I can't 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 keep me hanging on I remember mama said
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 I ain't easy, it ain't easy, no mama said
