It's the second tine around 
 
For you and I, boy 
 
And believe me it's confusing me... 
 
I'm afraid to say 'let's make up' and, 'all's forgiven,' 
 
But somethin' tells me I'm headed for heartbreak.... 
 
So darlin', please, I'm prayin' that 

This time it will be different 

That you and I can share this dream that I visualize... 
 
 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Tell me are you really ready for love, boy 
 
Or is it just the lonely talking again 
 
Are you really ready for love, boy 
 
Or is it the lonely talking again..... 
 
 
 
Now, the time before 
 
When we got together 
 
You promised you'd be forever true to me 
 
But all I got from you 
 
Was lots and lots of talking..... 
 
Lonely nights filled with misery 
 
 
 
So baby, please, please tell me now 
 
That when I fulfill your needs 
 
You won't up and leave me, 
 
Even though you know I'll let you come back.... 

Tell me
