Ready To Love

Like a bee in a watering can
To flee from a faltering man
Like the sea caught in the sand
Like me with my daughter in hand

You see, I’ve been taught to make a stand
We were free but we fought and we ran
We drew the short straw in the plan
I’m beginning to understand

AND I WONDER IF I’M READY, READY, READY
I WONDER IF I’M READY TO LOVE
I WONDER IF I’M READY, READY, READY
I WONDER IF I’M READY TO LOVE

Throw away the key to the door and be damned
Send a sheep to slaughter the lambs
I tried to leave before it began
Me with my daughter in hand

The fishes were sleeping in salt as we swam
In their sea, and we pulled them in as we sang
I believe that there’s more to it than
Thwarting the seed that sought for the land
I’m beginning to understand

AND I WONDER IF ….
