Are You Ready For Love? [With The Spinners]

[BiteUrLip]

Writer: Thom Bell, Leroy Bell, Casey James

Catch a star if you can

Wish for something special

Let it be me, my love is free

Sing a song to yourself

Think of someone listening

One melody, you're all for me


I'll write a symphony just for you and me

If you let me love you, I'll paint a masterpiece

Just for you to see

If you let me love you, let me love you


Are you ready, are you ready for love

Yes I am

Are you, are you ready, are you ready for love

Yes I am

Are you, are you ready, are you ready for love


You're the one like the sun

Shine your love around me

You'll always be the one for me


Say the word and I'll be there

Loving you forever

Don't let me go

Just say it's so


We'll hear the music ring from the mountain tops

To the valley below us

We'll serenade the world

With a lullaby so the angels will know us

Angels will know us

One of my very favorite Elton songs. Great dance record!

5+ stars.

4 stars...I like the other version better, but this is a very good song either way.

I agree, I prefer the original extended version, but still give this 5 stars.

This actually IS the original version - the lyrics are different than what I wrote (couldn't find the extended lyrics), but the track is from Thom Bell Sessions/The Complete Thom Bell Sessions.

This may be the original version on the CD but when it was released in the late 70s on vinyl the original version was without The Spinners. I have this original extended version remastered on CD if anyone needs a MP3 of it.

Ok, what a weird thing but I always thought that the one with The Spinners was the first one.

Sure, if you can send via sendspace or some else site, great!
