You Can't Hurry Love
Charlie and the Bachelors Lyrics

Gee, but it's tough to be broke, kid.
Being broke is no joke, it's a curse.

It's not a joke, kid, it's a curse.
Being broke is not funny, it's a curse.

My luck is changing, it's gotten from simply rotten to something worse.
My luck has transformed from bad to worse.

Who knows some day I will win too.
Maybe someday I'll have good luck as well.

I'll begin to reach my prime.
I'll come into my best qualities.

Now though I see what our end is, All I can spend is just my time.
I realize we have nothing, except each other and time.

I can't give you anything but love baby.
All I can offer you is love.

That's the only thing I've plenty of, baby.
Love is the only thing that I have in abundance.

Dream awhile, scheme awhile.
Let's dream and plan our future together.

We're sure to find Happiness and I guess All those things you've always pined for.
We will find happiness and all the things you've always desired.

Gee I'd like to see you looking swell, baby.
I'd love to see you looking great.

Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesn't sell, baby.
I want to give you luxurious items that are not sold at Woolworth's.

Till that lucky day you know darned well, baby.
Until we are fortunate enough to have those things, you understand that all I can give you is love.

Rome wasn't built in a day, kid.
It takes time to accomplish great things.

You have to pay, kid, for what you get.
You need to put effort and pay for what you want in life.

But I am willing to wait, dear.
I'm willing to wait for the things we desire.

Your little mate, dear, will not forget.
I'll never forget that we went through tough times together.

You have a lifetime before you.
You have a whole lifetime to achieve everything you desire.

I'll adore you, come what may.
I'll love and cherish you no matter what.

Please don't be blue for the present,
Don't feel sad right now.

When it's so pleasant to hear you say
It's nice to hear you talk.

I can't give you anything but love baby.
All I can offer you is love.

That's the only thing I've plenty of, baby.
Love is the only thing that I have in abundance.

Dream awhile, scheme awhile
Let's imagine and plan for our future together.

We're sure to find Happiness and I guess All those things you've always pined for.
We'll discover joy and all the material things you've longed for.

Gee I'd like to see you looking swell, baby.
I'd love to see you looking your very best.

Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesn't sell, baby.
I want to give you luxurious items that can't be found at Woolworth's.

Till that lucky day you know darned well, baby.
Until we are lucky enough to have those things, you understand that all I can give you is love.
