Ready for Love
Embracing Vulnerability: Yearning for Love's Awakening
Lyrics
I could get hit by a truck and it wouldn't faze me
Feels unaffected by potential danger but deeply impacted by your attention
But you looking in my direction could instantly kill me
Your gaze has a profound effect, possibly overwhelming
I'm not one to speak honeyed words of love, but
Not typically expressive about love but acknowledges your beauty
Your face might just be the most beautiful I've seen in the last hour
Considers your face remarkably beautiful
Make that the last couple hours
Admiration for your beauty extending over hours
Make that the last couple days
Continued appreciation for days
One week might be generous
Acknowledges growing affection over a week
But I think that I'm in love with you
Feels possibly in love with you
In love with the contours of your skin
Enamored with the details of your skin
Illuminated by the newly banned, nearly gone halogen lights in the ceiling
Charmed by your appearance in certain lighting
I must admit they make you look so appealing
Admits the lights enhance your appeal
And I know that you know that it hurts me
Aware you cause pain by highlighting flaws and insecurities
You point out all my flaws and pick at my insecurities
Reveals a paradoxical attraction to the hurt caused by criticism
And the worst part is that it kind of turns me on
Feels arousal despite the discomfort caused
I'm not one to speak honeyed words of love, but
Similar to line 3
I think I'm, I think I'm, I think I'm ready for love!
Feels ready for a romantic relationship
I think I'm, I think I'm, I think I'm ready for love!
Expresses readiness for love emphatically
The first time I saw you
First encounter and an instant feeling of connection
I knew you were the one for me
Believes you're the perfect match
You're my margaritas during happy hour
Compares feelings to a pleasurable and painful experience
You're my hangover in the morning
Emphasizes the conflicting emotions experienced around you
And I really wanna get to know you
Desires to understand you but struggles with communication
But everything I say is wrong
Feels consistently misunderstood
How can I get you on the floor?
Wants to connect intimately with you
I think I'm, I think I'm, I think I'm ready for love!
Repeated expression of readiness for love
Oh baby, oh yeah!
Expresses excitement about the prospect of love
I think I'm ready for, ready for, ra-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, burururururu, woo!
Indistinct vocalizations, possibly indicating eagerness or anticipation
Oh yeah, baby, give me some more of that!
Desires more affection or attention
I think I-I-I-I-I'm
Repeated expression of being ready for love
Ready for love
Confirms readiness for a romantic relationship
Mm, mm, oh yeah, let's go!

Oh!
Exclamation of excitement or anticipation
I think I just need some time and I'll get to know you well
Expresses a need for time to understand you better
I think I just need some time, baby, I think I just need some time
Reiterates the need for time to comprehend and connect
I think I just need some time and I'll get to know you well
