I am ready for love

Why are you hiding from me?

I'd quickly give my freedom

To be held in your captivity



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 'cause 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

Respects the spirit world and thinks with his heart



I am, 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 eyes, my soul, my mind

Tell me what is enough

To prove I am ready for love

I am ready
