Ready Now Lyrics

When I was six
Then you were nine
When I was darkness
You were sunshine
When you were shame
Then I was pride
When you were Jekyll
Then I was Hyde

When you were hope
Then I was fear
When you were far gone
I was so near
When I was peace
Then you were pain
I'd run away
You'd come again

Why you never let go?
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?

When you were seen
Then I was not
When you were love
Then I was cut
When you were cruel
Then I was kind
When I was yours
Then you were mine

So tell me now
And tell me true
Am I all me
Or a part of you?
And are you all you?
Or a part of me?
Muhammad Ali
"Me We"

Why you never let go?
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?

All things change (forever and ever)
All things change (forever and ever)
All things change (forever and ever)
But your love stays the same
All things change (forever and ever)
All things change (forever and ever)
All things change (forever and ever)
But your love stays the same

I'm ready here
I'm ready now
I've never been
So ready now
Never heard
Such a sound
As if the sky
Just hit the ground

Why you never let go?
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
When I'm missing, when I'm missing, when I'm missing
Why you never let go?
Why you never let go?
Why you never let go?
