You Can't Hurry Love Lyrics

I need love, love
Ooh, to ease my mind
And I need to find time
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 (ooh)
No, you′ll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes

How many heartaches must I stand (ooh)
Before I find new love to let me live again? (Ooh)
Right now (ooh), the only thing that keeps me hangin′ on (ooh)
When I feel my strength, ooh, it's almost gone
I 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? (Ooh)
How much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break?

No, I can′t bear to live my life alone (ooh)
I've grown impatient for a love to call my own (ooh)
But when I feel that I, I can't go on (ooh)
Well, these precious words keep me hangin′ on
I remember mama said

You can′t hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said love don′t come easy
Well, it's a game of give and take
You can′t hurry love (ooh)
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes
Now break

Now love, love, it don′t come easy
But I keep on waitin', anticipatin'
For that soft voice to talk to me at night
For some tender arms to hold me tight
I keep waitin′, ooh, until 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
Well, it′s a game of give and take
You can't hurry love (ooh)
No, you'll just have to wait
She said love don′t come easy
Well, it′s a game of give and take
You can't hurry love
No, you′ll just have to wait
