Ready for Love

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 Respect's 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 eyes My soul, my mind Tell me what is enough To prove I am ready for love I am ready
