[Intro]
I need love, love
To ease my mind
I need to find time to someone called mine

[Chorus]
But, my mama said, can’t hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said, love can’t come easy
It a game of give and take
You can’t hurry love
No, you just have to wait
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes

[Verse 1]
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, ah-ah-ah, it’s almost gone

[Chorus]
I remember my mama said, you can’t hurry love
Oh, you’ll have to wait
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes
[Verse 2]
How long must I wait
How much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break

[Verse 3]
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 this precious words keep, keep hanging on

[Chorus]
My mama said, you can’t hurry love, no
Oh, you’ll just have to wait
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes

[Verse 3]
Now love, love don’t come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating (I just keep waiting)
Oooh, till that day
But it ain’t easy, it ain’t easy

[Chorus]
My mama said, you can’t hurry love
Oh, you’ll just have to wait
She said, love don’t come easy
But it a game of give and take
You can’t hurry love
Oh, you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes
Can’t hurry love, just have to wait
[Bridge]
Trust in the good time
Trust in the good time
Trust in the good time
Trust in the good time

[Chorus]
My mama said you can’t hurry love
Oh, you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
But it’s a game of give and take
You can’t hurry love
Oh, you’ll just have to wait
Just trust in the good time
No matter how long it takes

[Outro]
Can’t hurry love, you’ll just have to wait
Trust in the good time
