Dead on my feet -- got a deadline to meet, But it can wait -- can't concentrate -- This one-track mind won't leave you behind Why punish me with memories If only now I could turn back the pages -- I played some games that I've lived to regret, I only wish I had gone through those stages -- Years before we met -- But I know *This time -- I'm ready for the real thing, Last Time -- I couldn't be true, This time -- I'm ready for the real thing too* Turn on the light, I've been tossing all night, I try to read but it's love that I need -- In my mind -- the sound of goodbye, Keeps hauntin' me like a distant dream -- If only now I could turn back the pages -- I played some games that I've lived to regret, I only wish I had gone through those changes Years before we met -- And baby (* Repeat) This time -- I'm ready for the real thing, Last time -- I couldn't be true, This time -- Get ready for the real thing, Cause this time baby -- I'm ready for you
