It's the second time around for you and I, boy
And believe me it's confusing me
I'm afraid to say, "Let's make up" and all's forgiven"
But somethin' tells me I'm headed for heartbreakSo darlin', please, I'm prayin' that
This time, yeah, this time it will be different
That you and I can share this dream that I visualizeTell me, are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely talking againNow, the time before when we got together
You promised you'd be forever true to me
But all I got from you was lots and lots of talking
Lonely nights filled with miserySo baby, please, please tell me now
That when I fulfill your needs
You won't up and leave me
Even though you know I'll let you come backTell me, are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it just the lonely talking again
Are you really ready for love, boy
Or is it the lonely talking againSleeping
