YOU CAN'T HURRY LOVE - 15/01/1983
2 weeks at #1 - 16 weeks on chart

I need love, love, ooh to easy my mind
And I need to find time, someone to call mine, 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
Just trust in the good times, 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, ooh 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 h-heart to break

Now I can't bear to live my life alone
I've grown impatient for a lover to call my own
And when I feel that I, I can't go on
Well 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, when it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait
Just trust in the good times, no matter how long it takes

Then I'm free

Now love, love, don't come easy
But I'll 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, ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy, you know it ain't easy, and my mama said

You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy, when it's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait
She said love don't come easy, when it's a game of give and take

4 weeks at #1 - 12 weeks on chart

Easy lover
She'll get a hold on you believe it
Like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see

She's the kind of girl you dream of
Dream of keeping hold of
You'd better forget it
You'll never get it
She will play around and leave you
Leave you and deceive you
Better forget it
Or you'll regret it

No you'll never change her, so leave it, leave it
Get out quick 'cos seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know

She's an easy lover
She'll get a hold on you believe it
Like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see

You're the one that wants to hold her
Hold her and control her
You'd better forget it
You'll never get it
For she'll say that there's no other
Till she finds another
Better forget it
Oh you'll regret it

And don't try to change her, just leave it, leave it
You're not the only one, ooh seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know, oh

No don't try to change her, just leave it, leave it
You're not the only one, ooh seeing is believing
It's the only way
You'll ever know, oh

She's an easy lover (she's an easy lover)
She'll get a hold on you believe it (get a hold on you)
(She's) like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees (you'll be down on your knees)
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it (you won't feel it)
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see (trying to make you see)
She's an easy lover
She'll get a hold on you believe it (get a hold on you)
(She's) like no other
Before you know it you'll be on your knees (you'll be down on your knees)
She's an easy lover
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it (you won't feel it)
She's like no other
And I'm just trying to make you see (trying to make you see)

A GROOVY KIND OF LOVE - 10/09/1988
2 weeks at #1 - 13 weeks on chart

When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When you're close to me, I can feel your heart beat
I can hear you breathing in my ear
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love

Anytime you want to you can turn me onto
Anything you want to, anytime at all
When I kiss your lips, ooh I start to shiver
Can't control the quivering inside
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love, oh

When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue
When I'm in your arms, nothing seems to matter
My whole world could shatter, I don't care
Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love
We got a groovy kind of love
We got a groovy kind of love, oh
We got a groovy kind of love
