I've done my time alone I finally beat the blues Heavens above I was ready for love oh but I wasn't ready for you I crossed some shaky ground had some dreams fall through Thought I was ready for something steady oh but I wasn't ready for you I used to be a boy scout thought I knew all about keepin' myself prepared After all that I'd seen I was ready for anything but then I saw you standin' there Talk about your heavenly blessings talk about your dreams come true I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle oh but I wasn't ready for you [ guitar - fiddle ] I used to be a boy scout... I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle oh but I wasn't ready for you
