I'm Ready for Love Songtext

von Martha and the Vandellas

As I stand alone
On this moonful night
For the first time
I feel alone in light

As I watch the moon
Kiss the starlit sky
I feel the need for your lips
To press close to mine

For so long
I've been afraid to love
But right now
I feel the need for love

And you
You have the love
The love I need
Oh, to comfort me

Ooh, and I'm ready for love
I'm truly ready for love
Your wonderful sweet, sweet love
Right now I'm ready for love

I've tried to shield my heart
From love's tender touch
Cause to lose your love
Wouldn't hurt so much

But as I softly walk
In my solitude
I search my heart and find
There's a need for you

And for the first time
I feel alone
Cause I need a love, oh
To call my own

And only you
You have the love
The love I need
Oh, to comfort me

Ooh, and I'm ready for love
I'm truly ready for love
You know I'm ready for love
Your wonderful sweet, sweet love

I'm ready right now
I'm ready right now

Ooh, something wonderful
Has come over me and
Fills this heart of mine
With ecstasy

I'm glad I've finally
Opened up my eyes
And pushed the fear of love
The fear of love aside

And for the first time
I feel alive
I have the touch of love
Deep down inside

And just as soon
As I see your smiling face
I'll rush into
Your warm embrace

Right now I'm ready for love
I'm truly ready for love
Your wonderful sweet, sweet love
Right now I'm ready for love

You know I'm ready for love
Your wonderful sweet, sweet love
Right now I'm ready for love
