Lyrics

[Verse 1]

(I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah)

I love that you're ready to love, yeah (Oh-oh-oh)

I love, I love, I'm ready to, ready to, ready to love

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah

[Verse 2]

You keep me awake with your white lily smile

Don't keep me watching your charms all the while

'Cause as all the wise men say

"Grab it if it comes your way"

[Verse 3]

I'm ready (To love, yes) Oh-oh

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah (Oh-oh-oh)

Ready to love

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah

[Verse 4]

You make me feel things I've never felt before

Help my baby eyes and open up the door (Open up the door)

You make me real to everyone and every day

I, I thank the Lord that you came along this way

It's no more an illusion that I can say

[Verse 5]

(I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah) Oh-oh

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah (I'm ready)

[Verse 6]

I love, I love, I'm ready, ready, ready, ready to love

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, oh-oh-oh-oh (I'm ready)

I love, I love, I'm ready to, ready to, ready to love

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah (I'm ready, yeah, oh-oh-oh)

I love, I love, I'm ready to, ready to, ready to love (I'm ready, yeah)

[Verse 7]

Oh-oh

Help me, Lord

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah

(I'm ready, yeah)

I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah yeah (Yeah, I'm ready, ready)

(I love, I love, I'm ready to love, yeah)

Yeah, I'm ready, I'm ready

I'm ready, I'm ready, ready, ready, ready to love

(I, I, I, I, I'm ready)
