I Want to Be Ready

I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way
 I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way, yeah
 I want to know what it happenning to me
 Wanna know how you could let this be, yeah?
 And I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way
 I wanna feel happy
 When I see you close the door
 I wanna feel happy
 When I see you close the door, yeah
 I want to know that this is for real
 'Cause good is the way that I want to feel
 And I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way, mm
 Now, once I had a love
 And she was good to me
 But I was so wrapped up in her
 That I couldn't even see
 I thought nobody else
 Could turn me on
 She used me up
 'Til I was almost gone
 And I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way
 I wanna be ready
 When the hurt comes my way
 Ready (ooh, ooh)
 Ready, I wanna be, I wanna be
 Ready (ooh, ooh)
 Ready, I got to be, I got to be
 Ready (ooh, ooh)
 Ready, I got to be, I got to be
 Ready (ooh, ooh)
 Ready, I got to be, I gotta be ready
