[Verse 1]
When will I get you alone?
Waitin' in this fear is impossible to me
But I'll be gentle with my tone
'Cause even if I wanted to
Where we go depends on you
It never feels like wastin' time (Wastin' time)
Lyin' here, just you and I
Let's stay forever and a day
I wonder if you'll feel the same way
[Chorus]
What if I told you this could be over?
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day, you'll let me
But not 'til wе're ready
But ready is always too latе, too late
But ready is always too late, ooh, hey
[Verse 2]
Maybe I'm just too blind to see, yeah
Jumpin' in so deep was irresponsible of me
But what if you're all I need?
Tell me what you're goin' through
I'll be here to comfort you
It never feels like wastin' time
Sharin' secrets, you and I
Let's stay forever and a day
I want you to feel the same way
[Chorus]
What if I told you this could be over?
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day, you'll let me
But not 'til we're ready
But ready is always too late, too late
But ready is always too late, ooh, hey
[Bridge]
We've been here all this time (Been here all this time)
If that doesn't change your mind
Won't you tell me this is real?
Won't you let me? (Let me)
Don't say when you're ready (Ready)
That's just too late, oh
[Chorus]
What if I told you this could be over?
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day, you'll let me
But not 'til we're ready
But ready is always too late, too late
Ready is always too late, late
[Outro]

I don’t know who needs to hear this but – tell that man to leave you be if he still ain’t “ready” – ask yourself ‘why am I waiting for this person to commit to me, how long will I have to wait and what isn’t special enough about me that he can’t do that now?’ years later, is “ready” still the excuse...
