| I need love, love
 | 
| 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
 | 
| It’s a game of give and take
 | 
| You can’t hurry love
 | 
| No, you’ll just have to wait
 | 
| Just trust in 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, 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?
 | 
| How much more must I take?
 | 
| Before loneliness
 | 
| Will cause my 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 Well these precious words keep me hanging on 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
 | 
| You can’t hurry love
 | 
| No, you’ll just have to wait
 | 
| Just trust in good time
 | 
| No matter how long it takes
 | 
| 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
 | 
| To 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
 | 
| Its a game of give and take
 | 
| You can’t hurry love… |
