Not Ready for Love

Winter's closing in
This house is getting cold
Living with your memory
is like living with a ghost
I'm ready for these lonely nights to end
But I'm just not ready for love again.

Chorus
The tears are fewer and further between
Life's waiting patiently to test my wings
I think about trying every now and then
But I'm just not ready for love again (repeat)

I'm not wishing for the tables to turn
I'm still sifting thru the ashes
of the lessons I've learned
Forgiveness keeps knockin'
but it can't come in
I'm just not ready for love again.

Bridge
Someday but not tonight
I'll get you off my mind
Then maybe love will find
its way back to where it belongs
