Ready For The Real Thing

Ready For The Real Thing - Survivor

Dead on my feet -- got a deadline to meet

But it can wait -- can't concentrate --

This one-track mind won't leave you behind

Why punish me with memories

If only now I could turn back the pages --

I played some games that I've lived to regret

I only wish I had gone through those stages --

Years before we met --

But I know

*This time --

I'm ready for the real thing

Last Time --

I couldn't be true

This time --

I'm ready for the real thing too*

Turn on the light I've been tossing all night

I try to read but it's love that I need --

In my mind -- the sound of goodbye

Keeps hauntin me like a distant dream --

If only now I could turn back the pages --

I played some games that I've lived to regret

I only with I had gone through those changes

Years before we met --

And baby

This time --

I'm ready for the real thing

Last time --

I couldn't be true

This time --

Get ready for the real thing

If only now I could turn back the pages --

I played some games that I've lived to regret

I only with I had gone through those changes

Years before we met --

And baby

This time --

I'm ready for the real thing

Last time --

I couldn't be true

This time --

Get ready for the real thing

Cause this time baby --

I'm ready for you

I'm ready for the real thing

Last time --

I couldn't be true

This time --

Get ready for the real thing
