I am ready
for love,
Why are you
hiding from me
I'd quickly
give my freedom
To be held in
your capitivity
I am ready
for love,
All of the
joy and the pain
And all the
time that it takes
Just to stay
in your good grace
Lately I've
been thinking maybe
You're not
ready for me,
Maybe you
think I need to learn maturity
They say
watch what you ask for 'cuz you might receive
But if you
ask me tomorrow, I'll say the same thing
I am ready
for love,
Would you
please lend me your ear
I promise I
won't complain
I just need
you to acknowledge I am here
If you give
me half a chance
I'll prove
this to you
I will be
patient, kind, faithful and true
To a man who
loves music
A man who
loves art
Respect the
spirit world and thinks with his heart
I am ready
for love
If you'll
take me in your hands
I will learn
what you teach
And do the
best that I can
I am ready
for love
Here with an
offering of my voice
My voice, my
eyes, my soul, my mind
Tell me what
is enough
To prove I am
ready for love
I am ready.
