[Verse 1]
I got a feeling, and the feeling's new
Now, it's a funny thing and it concerns you
It may seem like a hurry but it's overdue
You see, I know we're only at our second date
But, this time something tells me that I cannot wait
I'm not so good with words, so let me tell it straight

[Chorus 1]
Yeah we only just met
But I'm ready to go steady
Haven't seen your place yet
But I'm ready to go steady
If you don't know how, I do
Try a different avenue
When it hurts this bad, it could never come too soon

[Verse 2]
It's not the kinda thing that's slowly grown
It's like I've found somebody that I've always known
A voice I recognize right down to the bone
Now baby, if I can make it I can't guarantee
But, there's a chance you might feel the same as me
So i just need a reason, what's it gonna be?

[Chorus 2]
All the answers are changed
Now I'm ready to go steady
All the mystery's explained
'Cause I'm ready to go steady
If you don't know how, I do
Try a different avenue
When it hurts this bad, it could never come too soon
[Bridge]
You see, a day is a long time when you're alone
And even if there's a ghost of a chance that's enough
I learnt my lessons the hardest way
But this time
The story is true
It just hasn't happened yet

[Chorus 2]
All the answers are changed
Now I'm ready to go steady
All the mystery's explained
'Cause I'm ready to go steady
If you don't know how, I do
Try a different avenue
When it hurts this bad, it could never come too soon
When it hurts this bad, it could never come too soon
