You Can't Hurry Love - Diana Ross

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…
