I Got Him Ready for You
Love's Transformation: Preparing Hearts for a New Chapter
Lyrics
I taught him how to talk to me
I instructed him on how to communicate with me
I showed him what a woman needs
I demonstrated what a woman requires
A hand just to hold in the dark
A hand to hold in darkness is a fundamental need
He used to think it was enough
He once thought that sending flowers was sufficient
Sending flowers to show love
Expressing love through gestures like sending flowers
Now he knows he's gotta open his heart
Now he understands the importance of opening his heart
And the saddest thing 'bout how it all came down
The saddest part is how the relationship ended
Is he's not here with me now
Regret that he's not with the speaker now
I got him ready for you
The speaker prepared him for his new relationship
Look at all the things he can do
Listing the qualities and skills he now possesses
You can cry on his shoulder
He's a shoulder to cry on
He might even cry too
He may even share in the emotional vulnerability
He's come a long long way
He has undergone significant personal growth
And it's tragic but true
Acknowledging the unfortunate reality of the situation
I guess I've got him ready for you
Recognizing the role in preparing him for a new love
I wouldn't say I have regrets
The speaker doesn't express regrets
'bout the time that we both spent
Reflecting on the time spent together
If the truth be known, I'm a little better too
Admitting personal improvement despite challenges
So when he does the little things, when he treats you like a queen
When he treats the new partner exceptionally well
In a crazy way I'm bearing the rood
The speaker carries the burden in a peculiar way
Ooh, I feel like I did all the fixing in mud
Feeling like efforts were spent fixing something in vain
But you moved into our house of love
The new partner moved into the shared space of love
I got him ready for you
The speaker prepared him for the new partner
Look at all the things he can do
Highlighting the capabilities he has acquired
You can cry on his shoulder
Reiterating his support as a comforting presence
He might even cry too
He might share emotional moments with his partner
He's come a long long way
Emphasizing the significant journey he has taken
And it's tragic but true
Acknowledging the tragic reality of the situation
I guess I've got him ready for you
Reiterating the role in preparing him for a new love
I don't blame you, I'm not saying you stole him away from me
No blame directed towards the new partner
I just want you to know he's not the man he used to be, yeah
Clarifying that he has transformed, not stolen away
He's come a long long way
Reiterating the significant personal growth
And it's tragic but true
Acknowledging the tragic aspect of the situation
I guess I've got him ready for you
Restating the role in preparing him for a new love
I guess I've got him ready for you
Final affirmation of preparing him for the new partner
