[Verse 1]
Go on, make me feel it's useless
When in fact it's you that needs to have me near
So now keep me at safe distance
And with a little persistence I'll make it crystal clear
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
[Verse 2]
Now you seem to be content with a one-sided friendship
With you I've got to chase
Slow down so I can smell the roses
But the road you chose is crooked and unpaved
My tires are spinning but to no avail
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
Go on, make me feel it's useless
When in fact it's you that needs to have me near
So now keep me at safe distance
And with a little persistence I'll make it crystal clear
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
[Verse 2]
Now you seem to be content with a one-sided friendship
With you I've got to chase
Slow down so I can smell the roses
But the road you chose is crooked and unpaved
My tires are spinning but to no avail
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
[Chorus]
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'll be around only if you want me to be there by your side
I'm ready for you
So don't be afraid 'cause I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
