I need love, love to ease my mind; I need to find, 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.
