READY FOR YOU
In my life
I’ve created much pain
My past
showed me I had to change
Wanting
you to help me through the hurt
Had to get
my life together first
‘Cause
I knew if I grew
I’d
be ready for you
And
you’d be ready for me too
I looked
real deep into my life
Working
through the pain and strife
Seeing
women as friends, not just for sex
Are you
the one that I’d meet next?
Been
waiting a long time for you
There were
times so lonesome and blue
Sometimes
I almost gave it up
Then you
came and gave me you love
‘Cause
I knew if I grew
I’d
be ready for you
And
you’d be ready for me too
Those old
loves can hurt and ravage
Into new
love we bring our baggage
We talk
and spend our time together
And so the
rough times we can weather
There are
times I pull away that’s true
But you
trust me to come back loving you
Sometimes
you’re hurt and you pout
I’m there
for us to work it out
‘Cause
I knew if I grew
I’d
be ready for you
And
you’d be ready for me too
‘Cause
I knew if I grew
I’d
be ready for you
And
you’d be ready for me too
