Getting Ready

Oh, baby, I'm getting ready

I'm getting ready to let you go

My hands shake

My heart's unsteady

Oh how I want to love you so

I don't want to let this go

Wish I had a magic wand

I would put a spell on you

You would see it as I do

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

Oh, baby, you are my drug

And I was just your cigarette

I was nothing you could be proud of

I have lost my self respect

My self respect

My self respect

I have lost my self respect

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

I'm getting ready to let you go

Baby, baby, we got no traction

I'm waiting and waiting for your reaction

So I'll try a new direction

I'm gonna give myself a resurrection

I'm getting ready to let you go

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

Oh, I'm getting ready to let you go

I'm getting ready to let you go

I'm getting ready to let you go
