YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE
(BAR)-Holland/Dozier/Holland
4/4 1...2...123 (without intro)
Intro:
(4 measure of C, after 4 measures of percussion)
I need love, 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, is almost gone
I re-member 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 loneli-ness will cause my heart, heart to break?
