Ready To Fall
I can't feel it
I can't explain
Whenever your eyes meet mine
My heart spins in circles
And I feel so spaced in time
And now that were standing face to face
Something tells me it's gunna be okay
Chorus
And I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Ready to hold my heart open wide
Cant promise forever but baby I'll try
'cause I'm ready to fall
In love tonight
I know youve been watching
Choosing your moment
But I've been dreaming of that day
No one before you has gotten to me this way
And now that were standing face to face
There's something I need to say
Chorus
Bridge- nothing is certain
This I know
Wherever were heading
Im ready to go
Cant promise forever but baby I'll try
'cause I'm ready to fall in love tonight x3
In love tonight
