i'm ready for love

Singer: barry white

what i wouldn't give

just to live one night with you

sometimes people are misunderstood

their intentions

their feelings. and i don't want you to misunderstand or misinterpret what i'm saying and feeling about you

sometimes a man can believe in his heart

and he's felt everything that it is to feel

and then someone comes along

and this makes all of that so untrue

lately

i've been thinking

just how much you and i

could spend the whole night through

dancing away

and watching you smile

enjoying all of each other's company

yeah

i've sent you dozens of roses

sitting with the gentle breeze

that's sweet as your perfume

sitting and talking

our hands will touch

and love will start to bloom

ooh

you feel it too

all i want is you. i'm ready for love

this time i'm going to try

for love

i know i'm gonna make it

for your love

i swear this love will never die

yeah yeah

never die

yeah

i'm ready for love

but this time i found the friend

with your love

i know i'll make it through the end

ready for love

but only if it's you and i

oh my

oh my. you and i

you and i

you and i

oh

i've heard so many stories

i've learned the games

like foolish people do

i've played the part

and broke some hearts

but in the end

i'd wind up losing too

i'm waiting

so don't fight the feeling

let your whole heart take control

and give your love to me

hope that it's all right

and we'll make love in perfect harmony

ooh

you feel it too

and let's make it all come true. i'm ready for love

this time i'm gonna try

i'm ready for love

i know that i can make it

i'm ready for your love

i swear this love will never die

i know that well

and you can tell

i'm ready

but this time i found a friend

ready

i know i'll make it through the end

ready

only if it's you

you and i

i. ready

can't you feel the fire?

yeah we're ready

i know we're gonna take it higher.
