I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity
I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing
I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here
If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you
I will be patient, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respects the spirit world
And thinks with his heart
I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can
I am ready for love
Here with an offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind
Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

Review about Ready For Love India | Reviewer: Shay | 12/7/09
I really feel that she wrote this song from the bottom of her heart in this is how she feels. You can't write no song better then this. I've tried to but I can't to her. This is every woman's national athom in the end. I first heard this song when my bff teyana song it in our contest at school she actually made me cry because this is how she feel also.
I had been single and Praying for the past 3 years for a Godly man. By the Grace of our Creator I met a Special man by the name of Richard from Texas me in California. Later, discover we are seriously in Love with each other having the Lord as our Foundation. He dedicated this song to me as we spoke on the Phone one night and I became "Speechless". I shead tears of Love, Admiration and Inspiration for Richard. I was able to see deeper than my eyes could see and hear deeper than my ears could hear what Richard was telling me through this Song. I thank him for opening his heart to me and letting me in it.
For those praying for a Husband or a Wife don't give up. Be faithful to the Lord and honor his Word and God will grant you all the desires of your heart according to his richness in Glory. Matthew 6:33 says, "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you".
For those who are heartbroken, crushed and hopeless don't give up on yourselves. There are moments we don't understand in life why the Worst things happen to us. We end up alone for years but what we don't see is that our Emotions, Mind, Heart and Soul are being restored and lifted. We forget that Love is a "Decision". So why not include God in our plans for that special Someone? Tell him exactly what you want and wait on his time not yours.
When we do things according to his Word then you will see his Glory manifest before your eyes. Then, this song will certainly encourage you to move on with a different view of what Love Truely means.
I now understand the Man I longed and prayed for years asked me to Marry him. I said, "Yes". What he doesn't know is since he loves to hear me sing I will sing "Ready For Love" to him in our Ceremony. We give God all the Glory and Honor for People like Rudy Diaz that wrote this song and India for such a beautiful talent to live what she sings and people like us are blessed with this type of lyrics.
I Love You Richard!

This helped me through my rough time as well... but instead of waiting for someone who doesn't love me back, i think of the lyrics to God. I am ready for love now, and with God's grace, I will love again.
This song helped me through the time of my life when i thought i was gonna die. My girlfriend of 3 years which i loved and still do broke up with me at dinner when i was gonna ask her to marry me. She told me she was in love with someone else so acted like it was fine as i didn't ask her yet.She said she couldn't wait on me to give myself to her completely because she desperately wants to be my wife and i won't ask her, so she found someone else.I get emotional just thinking about and i won't forget. I saw her and told her and she cried

this song is so telling my story... i was or still in love with a my ex boyfriend who thinks i'm not mature enough and ready fr love... I want to prove to him and tell him I am but he won't listen or acknowledge me... I don't know what to do... desperate for him to see me...this song really helps me dealing with my feelings...letting me cry...
This song really and truly got me thru the roughest times in my life. I was deeply in love with a guy for the longest and then stupid actions broke it all apart. I still have to live with the pain and the heartache, but I listen to this song almost everyday and everyday gets just a little bit easier.
song heard at the wrong time | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/11/08
I heard this song six years ago and it did make me want to cry.... but only because I heard this on a cd that my husband created while we were going thru some very bad times due to his infatuation with a coworker. His infatuation destroyed our marriage and now the song represents my need to love myself and get out of a very bad marriage.
I first heard this song when my life was changed by a man I am truly in love with. My past relationships all seemed meaningless when I met him and I was invloved when I met him and after listening to this song and many like it at a friend of ours' soul spot, I broke up with my boyfriend at the time immediately and I have been captivated by my lover ever since. In the past, I wasn't ready because I didn't have that person I felt completed me. Someone I shared so many interests with.. Someone who's smile can make my day. I am ready for love and I thank God for blessing Ms India with the talent she has in her vocals because that and of course some mood lighting made me realize the love I had for a friend of mine that now is the love of my life. God Bless! :)

This is a work of art. The way she sings it, It just sounds like it's true. Like, I'm feeling the feelings she has. There is few singers who can do that, and she is one. There's a passion in her voice, and it brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful.
