I Wasn't Ready for You Lyrics

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
Oh 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

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
Oh but, then I saw you standin' there

Talkin' about your heavenly blessings
Talkin' about your dreams come true
I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle
But I wasn't ready for you

I was feeling spiritual and ready for a miracle
Oh, I wasn't ready for you

Hey, I wasn't ready

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
