I'm Not Ready Songtext
von Michael Bolton

I am broken, there's a stranger on the phone
Something's missing from seven years ago
You tell me, "Baby, don't you cry anymore
That's the past and not what we've become"
But I know
I am shaking, not a breath left to breathe
All this sadness, so cold that I can't speak
Look me in the eyes
You know it's okay that we didn't make it forever
Oh, come hold my hand
Hold on to this last minute we have together
I'm not ready to say goodbye
You and God both know all the years I've tried
And if it's over, give me the strength to go
'Cause I know I'm never gonna be
I'll never be ready to say goodbye to you
My bags are all packed, waiting at the door
It's hard to imagine I won't live here anymore
I'm scared of tomorrow and the emptiness to come
But I've changed for the better since I've known your love


So look me in the eyes
You know it's okay we didn't make it forever
Come, hold my hand
Let's hold on to this last minute we have together
I'm not ready to say goodbye
You and God both know all the years I've tried
And if it's over give me the strength to go
'Cause I know I'm never gonna be
I'll never be ready to say goodbye to you
I'm not ready
And even if we tried
We would end up right back to this place together, oh
And this was not a lie
And what we had will always be a real love forever
'Cause I'm not ready to say goodbye
You and God both know all the years I've tried
And if it's over, give me the strength to go
'Cause I know I'm never gonna be
I'm not ready to say goodbye
You and God both know all the years I've tried
And if it's over, give me the strength to go
'Cause I know I'm never gonna be
I'll never be ready to say goodbye to you
I'll never be ready, say goodbye to you
