I've done my time alone
I finally beat the blues
Heavens above, I was ready for love
Oh but, I wasn't ready for you

I crossed some shaky ground
Had some dreams fall through
Thought I was ready for something steady
Oh but, I wasn't ready for you

I used to be a boy scout
Thought I knew all about keepin' myself prepared
After all that I'd seen I was ready for anything
Oh but, then I saw you standin' there

Talk about your heavenly blessings
Talk about your dreams come true
I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle
Oh but, I wasn't ready for you

I used to be a boy scout
Thought I knew all about keepin' myself prepared
After all that I'd seen I was ready for anything
Oh but, then I saw you standin' there

Talkin' about your heavenly blessings
Talkin' about your dreams come true
I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle
But I wasn't ready for you

I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle
Oh, I wasn't ready for you

Hey, I wasn't ready
