Ready for the Real Thing
Dead on my feet, got a deadline to meet
But it can wait, can't concentrate
This one-track mind won't leave you behind
Why punish me with memories

If only now I could turn back the pages
I played some games that I've lived to regret
I only wish I had gone through those stages
Years before we met, but I know

This time I'm ready for the real thing
Last time I couldn't be true
This time I'm ready for the real thing too

Turn on the light, I've been tossing all night
I try to read but it's love that I need
In my mind, the sound of goodbye
Keeps hauntin' me like a distant dream

If only now I could turn back the pages
I played some games that I've lived to regret
I only wish I had gone through those changes
Years before we met, and baby

This time I'm ready for the real thing
Last time I couldn't be true
This time I'm ready for the real thing too
This time I'm ready for the real thing
Last time I couldn't be true
This time Get ready for the real thing
'Cause this time baby I'm ready for you
