Lyrics

I need love, love Ooh, to ease my mind And I need to find fine Someone to call mine My mama said "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 in the good time No matter how long it takes" 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, you know it's almost gone But remember mama said "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 How much more must I take Before loneliness 'Cause my heart, heart to break And no, I cant bear to live my life alone I grown impatient for a lover to call my own Oh, when I feel that I, I can't go on When this precious words Keep me hanging on I remember mama said "You can't hurry love Noo, you'll just have to wait" She said "Love don't come easy When it's a game of give and take" "You can't hurry love Oh, no you'll just have to wait Just trust in the good time No matter how long it takes", and now break Now 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 Hold me tight I keep waiting (Ooh, till that day) But it ain't easy (Love don't come easy) No, you know it ain't easy My mama said "You can't hurry love No, you'll just have to wait" She said "Love don't come easy When it's a game of give and take" "You can't hurry love Oh, no you'll just have to wait You said "love don't come easy When it's a game of give and take"
