Easy

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 got to 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 hangin' 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 

  How long must I wait 
  How much more can 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, I can't go on 
  These precious words keeps me hangin' on 
  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 

  You can't hurry love 
  No, you just have to wait 
  She said trust, give it time 
  No matter how long it takes 

  Gotta wait! 

  No, 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 
  I keep on waiting 
  But it ain't easy 
  It ain't easy 
  But mama said: 

  You can't hurry love 
  No, you just have to wait 
  She said to trust, give it time 
  No matter how long it takes 

  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
