It's the second time around
For you and I, boy
And believe me it's confusing me
I'm afraid to say "let's make up" and, all's forgiven
But something tells me I'm headed for heartbreak
So darling, please, I'm praying that
F7(b9)
This time, yeah, this time it will be different
That you and I can share this dream that I visualize
Chorus:
Tell me are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely talking again
Now, the time before
When we got together
You promised you'd be forever true to me
But all I got from you
Was lots and lots of talking
Lonely nights filled with misery
So baby, please, please tell me now
That when I fulfill your needs
F7(b9) Bm9
You won't up and leave me
Even though you know I'll let you come back
Chorus:
Tell me are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely talking again
Really need to know
Chorus:
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely (Tell me now, want to know, really got to know)
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Tell me are you ready
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Need to know
Really want to know, really want to know
Really need to know
Are we gonna talk? Are we gonna talk?
Don't want to talk no no no no
I need to know, I really want to know
You tell me now
I don't know, are you ready?
No no no need to know
