READY

Being unable (or unwilling) to really commit to someone and then realizing afterwards that you should have. But then it's too late of course, hmm...
What guy (or girl) doesn't know that feeling (OK maybe you don't, you're blessed ;-))

It's a notorious theme in pop and rock songs, particularly those in the 80s and 90s. It's also a reoccurring theme in my own lyrics. In a sense this song is the follow-up on one of my previous songs MONDAY

As always any comments are welcome!

Ready

I wasn't ready for it
I wasn't ready to go
not giving up on love
just feeling ready to run

and now I know
it's burning me still
and for all days to come
I wanted to see
but days gone by days turn into a night
further down the road love passing me by

some days seem almost stolen from my mind
those nights of running wild and trying to find
were they real?

I wasn't up for it
I wasn't ready for you
had no real loving in me
nothing real to show
you tried to fight it there
you wouldn't leave it alone

and now I find
it's hurting me still
I do miss your promises
and your giving in
when you said you'd always be
be right here with me
but days gone by days turn into a night
further down that road love keeps passing me by

and now I know
it's hurting me still
I have all my days to come
I want to believe
when you said you'd always be
be right here with me
with me
