When will I get you alone
Waiting in this fear is impossible to me
But I'll be gentle with my tone
Coz even if I wanted to, where we go depends on you

It never feels like wasting time
Lying here just you and I
I'd stay forever and a day
I wonder if you'll feel the same way

What if I told ya
This could be over
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day you'll let me
But not til we're ready
But ready is always too late, too late
But ready is always too late

Maybe I'm just too blind to see
Jumping in so deep was irresponsible of me
But what if you're all I need
Tell me what you're going through, I'll be here to comfort you

It never feels like wasting time
Sharing secrets you and I
I'd stay forever and a day
I want you to feel the same way

What if I told ya
This could be over
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day you'll let me
But not til we're ready
But ready is always too late, too late
But ready is always too late

We've been here all this time
If that doesn't change your mind
Won't you tell me this is real
Won't you let me
Don't say when you're ready
That's just too late

What if I told ya
This could be over
I just can't bear to hear you say
Let's take it steady
One day you'll let me
But not til we're ready
But ready is always too late, too late
Ready is always too late
