Soon as You're Ready Songtext
von Billy Ocean

Are you ready for me baby

Are you ready for me baby ooh, ooh, ooh, oh, oh, oh
I′m ready

Oh, I know you don't wanna be lonely
Nobody wants to be by themselves
I know that you′re broken-hearted
And you're cautious at the moment

But sooner or later you're gonna be needing some affection
Just look in my direction
Don′t fight it, ooh, no
And you will discover we were meant for each other

As soon as you′re ready (soon as you're ready)
As soon as you make up your mind (make up your mind)
I′ll be there in the wings with love that's one of a kind
As soon as you′re ready, oh, oh


Thought you were his one and only (one and only baby)
But he took you for a ride
Oh, it's such a pity (such a pity) your feelings you′ve gotta hide
Don't close the book baby, your past experience is misleading
There's so much you should be reading on love baby
Don′t let it turn your heart to stone
Remember you′re not alone

As soon as you're ready (soon as you′re ready)
As soon as you make up your mind (make up your mind)
I'll be there in the wings with love that′s one of a kind
As soon as you're ready

As soon as you′re ready (soon as you're ready)
As soon as your hearts strong enough (strong enough)
Will you wanna take one more chance
I've got good love as soon as you′re ready

Call me baby as soon as you are ready
Oh, I′ll come running
As soon as you're ready, oh, ooh
Anytime (anytime) I′ll be there (I'll be there) in a hurry don′t you worry
Whenever you call

Don't close the book baby
Your past experience is misleading
There′s so much you could be reading on love oh baby
Don't let it turn your heart to stone
Remember you're not alone ooh, ooh


As soon as you′re ready (soon as you′re ready)
As soon as you make up your mind (make up your mind)
I'll be there in the wings with love that′s one of a kind
As soon as you're ready

As soon as you′re ready (as soon as you're ready)
As soon as your hearts strong enough (strong enough)
And if you wanna take one more chance
I′ve got good love, oh, baby

I've got good love you know that
I've got good love as soon as you′re ready
Call my name baby as soon as you′re ready
Oh, call me baby
As soon as you are ready, as soon as you're ready
Oh, call me baby, call me baby

Whenever you′re ready (soon as you're ready)
To rock steady with me (call me)
Whenever you′re ready to rock steady with me
