When love is ready, love will go
She interrupts me as I talk
Handing me something I had lost.
I hold it close and search her eyes.
Is she returning after all?
Deep down inside I'm feeling warm.
She doesn't try to turn it on.
She's got a power over me.
She's got the power to be gone.
I wrap around her, try to keep her here.
I should know better, it's impossible.
I see her fading, watch her disappear.
When love is ready, love will go.
When love is ready, love will go.
I take a breath and take her in.
She's mother nature's sweet perfume.
And nothing's softer than her skin.
She always looks like she's brand new.
I wrap around her, try to keep her here.
I should know better, it's impossible.
I see her fading, watch her disappear.
When love is ready, love will go.
When love is ready, love will go.
I don't want to give her back
Though she isn't mine to keep.
When I heard her say "forever"
Was she just talking in my sleep?
I wrap around her, try to keep her here.
I should know better, it's impossible.
I see her fading, watch her disappear.
When love is ready, love will go.
When love is ready, love will go.
I wrap around her, try to keep her here.
I should know better, it's impossible.
I see her fading, watch her disappear.
When love is ready, love will go.
When love is ready, love will go.
When love is ready, love will go
This I know
When love is ready, love will go.
