Walkin’ down this rocky road
Wondering where my life is leadin’
Rollin’ on to the bitter end
Finding out along the way
What it takes to keep love living
You should know how it feels, my friend

Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today

I’m ready for love
Oh baby, I’m ready for love
Ready for love
Oh baby, I’m ready for love

Now I’m on my feet again
Better things are bound to happen
All my dues surely must be paid
Many miles and many tears
Times were hard but now they’re changing
You should know that I’m not afraid

Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today

I’m ready for love
Oh baby, I’m ready for love
I’m ready for love
Oh baby, I’m ready for love
Oh, for your love
