Lyrics
There was no fear that you would leave me standing here
It didn't cross my mind that I'd be alone
You always cared and I just wouldn't let you near
I admit that I was scared, and I reacted like a stone
The best thing that you did for me
Was to walk away and set me free
chorus
Cause now I'm ready...
I'm ready to be in love on a two-way street
We have the wealth that I need to invest in myself
And now I'm ready...
I'm ready to be in love on a two-way street
Love will be healthy and steady
Now that I'm ready
There was no thought while you were holding me so high-
So high I almost touched the sky-
There was no thought that I would fall
The times we fought I knew that you'd apologize
Whether you were wrong or right, even if the fault were mine
I let you shoulder the bad
While I lived the life you should have had
Bridge:
I was young and immature
I was never sure
Oh, but now I know
