You Can't Hurry Love

(álbum: Soul City - 2019)

I need love, love
To ease my mind
I need to find, find
Someone to call mine
But 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
You got trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes

But 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, 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 can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that I, ooh, I can't go on
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
You got trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes

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 on waiting, I keep on waiting
But it ain't easy, it ain't easy
It's a game of give and take

You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
You can't hurry love
Love don't come easy
You just have to wait
It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
You can't hurry love
No you'll just have to wait
