Ready for Love - Paper Idol

Every time I feel like bein' alone

You ask for my attention

Silence at the door, no

But you came back for more

It wasn’t right

Every time that I hang up the phone

You dial the extension, oh

Ask the operator

For the strongest stuff he has

Under the knife

But every single second is not enough for you

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

Can’t forget the days you picked me up

And left me in suspension, oh

High above the water

On a bridge that’s breakin' up

With every pound

But I need to believe that the Lord above is pleased

With His invention (-vention, -vention, -vention,) oh

So I’ll pretend I’m weak, yeah

I’ll turn the other cheek

And won’t make a sound (Oh)

But every single second is not enough for you

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

Nobody’s ever ready for love

Ready for love

The way that you are baby

(Oh, you’re so ready, oh)

(I just can’t take it anymore, no)

('Cause I been tryin' for so long)

(But you can’t get away for a second, oh, no)
