"So Ready" by The FOG (original song)

Today is our 18th anniversary. This is a song I wrote to be performed at our wedding. I thought it was about time to revisit it.

Lyrics:
"So Ready"

Met a lady the other day
Pretty lady swept me away
Feel secure, but yet so free
Is she the one to understand me?

Pretty lady gentle yet strong
Is she the one, I've sought for so long
Her spirits strong, her heart is true
There's only one thing to say
I love you

Life can be sad, so sad and lonely
But now I realize it was in my power all the time
To add up to two, you must start out with two wholes
Standing together my love grows stronger all the time

I'm so ready
To be in love
So ready
To be in love with you

Listen lady to what I say
You came into my life swept me away
Feel secure, but yet so free
You are the one I want with me

Pretty lady, I've sought you so long
My need is you my love is strong
The spirits high, my heart its true
There's only one thing to say
I love you

Life can be full of peace and loving
Now I know that one can find it if they try
Facing our trials as two on the same road
Standing together our love grows stronger all the time

[chorus]

@Sanctuary1952 Thanks for listening! I guess this tune is the opposite of "Won't Somebody Love Me" ... but I suppose both emotions are a great place to create from.

she must be a very special lady to have you write such a great song! Best Wishes, Mieke

@kiaweking Thanks for checking it out, Thomas. I think Betty White said slide shows used to be thought of as torture, but I guess if you keep it to 4-minutes yer ok. Thanks for listening!

Dan, you are blessed on many levels. Sweet melody, great lyrics, and a wonderful family. Thanks for the slide show. I can feel the love in this one so true.

Happy anniversary!

Peace,

Thomas
