You Can't Hurry Love
(The Supremes)

I need love, love ooh, 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
Well it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love, 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
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, heart to break

No, I cant 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:

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, it's a game of give and take
How long must I wait, just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes...
