[English]

You make the moon and the stars come out

You make the world spin around and round

and round and round and round

and round

I just lie awake at night

thinking how you could be mine

And how I wasted too much time.

Iaaaaaaai. I'm ready for your hands

I'm ready for your heart - I'm ready for your touch

It's tearing me apart I'm ready for your

la la la la la la la la

I'm ready for your love

I'm ready for your love

I'm ready for your love

You’re like the strings on a violin

You make my mind and my body sing

I sing I sing I sing I sing I sing

I just lie awake at night

thinking how you could be mine

And how I wasted so much time

Iaiiii. I'm ready for your love.

I'm ready for your hands

I'm ready for your heart.

I'm ready for your touch it's treating me apart.

I'm ready for your la la la la la la la la love

I’m ready for your hands

I’m ready for your heart

I'm ready for your touch it's tearing me apart

I’m ready for your la la la la la la la la love

I'm ready for your love

I'm ready for your love

I'm ready for your love

I'm ready for your love
