Ready or Not
Misha Calvin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was a time when I could stand the waitin'
But the thought of bein' near ya sent my needle into red
There was a time when I could stand the pain
You took everything that kills
And you broke my heart
You broke my heart
I'm in love, I'm in love
Even though my heart is aching
I just can't resist the call
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm comin' over the walls into your arms
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm on auto locate and I can't stop it
There was a time when I could stand the heartache
But I can't keep searchin' for something
That I just ain't gonna find
I'm in love, I'm in love
Even though my heart is aching
I just can't resist the call
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm comin' over the walls into your arms
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm on auto locate and I can't stop it, no
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
Oh darlin', yes, I'm comin' for you
Oh, I'm comin'for you
Oh, I'm comin'for you
I just can't sleep, got the lady on my mind, oh
I wonder, I wonder if she's hard, hard to find
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm comin' over the walls into your arms
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm on auto locate and I can't stop it
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm comin' over the walls into your arms
Ready or not, I'm comin' to get ya
I'm on auto locate and I can't stop it
Are you ready? Oh
Are you read for love? Oh oh oh




Are you ready?
Are you read for love?
