You Can't Hurry Love
Diana Ross
Letra

I need love, love, to ease my mind,

I need to find, find, someone to call mine. But mama said:

(Chorus:)

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:

(Chorus:)

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 keep me hanging on. I remember, mama said:

(Chorus:)

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.


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:

(Chorus:)

You can t hurry love, no, you just have to wait.

She said 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.
