"Am I Ready for Love?" Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder
How it's gonna feel
Will my first love be true and real?
Will I be ready when my heart starts to fall?
What will I do when my love comes to call?

And my daddy tells me
That I light up his world
Every day he says
"Darlin', you're my best girl"
He tried to teach me from the very start
The meaning of love so nobody breaks my heart

Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?

Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the boy?
Am I ready for love?
For love

I know I'm not a little girl any more
'Cause I'm feeling things I've never felt before
Sweet sensations
And anticipations
Calling commotion
To my emotions

And I hear the words my daddy said to me
He said, "Be true to yourself
And keep your spirit free
And love will find you
One way or another
Be good to yourself
And be good to each other"

Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?

Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the boy?
Am I ready for love?

It's a run around the world
And it's moving so fast
Though I wanna find
A love that's gonna last
A love so strong
That it can withstand
The weight of this world
In the palm of its hand

Will my love come in a bowl of fire?
Will it be filled with hope and desire?
Will my love come in the pourin' rain?

Am I ready for the joy?
Am I ready for the pain?
Am I ready for the boy?
Am I ready for this game?
Am I ready for the kiss?
Am I ready for the stars?
Am I ready for the bliss?
Am I ready for love?
For love
