Now Is The Time For Love - The Marvelettes

Come take the hand of love

And let it be your guide

Open your heart and find

That true love (True love)

Has come inside (Inside)

Now is the time for love

While the heart is young

You waited for so long

It’s over now, your time has come

You sat alone and watched

People in love go strolling by

You wanted to cry

It hurt to see them so happy

While your heart cried out for love

Why couldn’t it be you

That felt the way they do, you’d say, oh (You'd say)

But now it’s gone, the hurt you felt so long

'Cause I’m here with you

I’ll never leave you

We will walk in love

Beneath the stars above

Happiness will come our way

Forget the heartache of yesterday

Oh darling, now is the time for love

While the heart is young

You waited for so long

It’s over now, your time has come

Ooh

Now let them see

The way you walk with me

Let them envy you

Like you used to do

Let them sit and stare

People everywhere, wishing they could be like us

So please don’t hesitate (Don't hesitate)

'Cause love has answered your long wait

Oh darling

Your wait is over, darling (Now is the time for love)

So come and walk with me (While the heart is young)

Reach out and hold my hand (You waited for so long)

We’re fine now, destiny (It's over now, your time has come)

Oh darling, now is the time for love

While the heart is young
