Tell the people, tell the people
Te-te-te-te-te-tell the people

I can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for love
Impatient for love
Oh, I can't bear

She eatin' up the town, she was designed for it
I died and rearranged and moved my mind for it
Oh, moved my mind for it
This thing is gettin' crazy, goin' blind for it
She eatin' up the town, she was designed for it
I died and rearranged and moved my mind for it

They hate to see the system actually figured out
They want you caught up in distraction, fear, and doubt
I'd rather focus on the love that's been around

High-speed drives through the scenic route
High fashion when people see us out

Can't hurry love

When I feel my strength (tell the people)

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
