Intro: It's been a little while since I looked in your eyes And walked that bridge to the other side Mama says it's gonna get cold in the night But if I picture you then I'll be alright I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here. It's been a little while since I've held your hands oh my arms won't stretch to your distant land Give me every person in the whole wide world and I'll pick you out in a second, girl. I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here. For you, for you, to be here.(x2) It's been too many seconds since I've seen your face and for all I know you're in outer space Dancing to the rhythms of the shooting stars thinking of the times that forever are ours I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here. For you, for you, to be here.(x2) It's been a little while since I've held your hands oh my arms won't stretch to your distant land Give me every person in the whole wide world and I'll pick you out in a second, girl. I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here.
