You’re Not Ready Lyrics

(You're not ready, you're not ready)

I would give my whole world to you
Anything that you'd ask me I would do
I've grown tired of this fooling around, around
And now I'm ready to settle, settle down

Well, I press but you hesitate
So I guess, I'll just have to wait
Because (You're not ready)
You're not ready (You're not ready)
Oh, for my love

(You're not ready, you're not ready)

How you slipped through my fingers
I don't know
Had you right where I wanted
But let go
When I think of how foolish
I've been
Oh my darling it tears me
Wears me thin

Oh, I was the one who played the field
Now I'm ready to seal the deal
I want you girl (You girl)
You girl (You girl)
You
Well I press but you have a shade of doubt
So I guess I'll just have to wait it out
Because (You're not ready)
You're not ready (You're not ready)
Oh, for my love
My love, my love
(You're not ready, you're not ready)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
