R U Ready?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Radio static
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Jesus was a wise man
And everyone's a Saint
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready?
You can read
The good and bad book
And bring the bad book home
But is it fact or fiction
There's just one way to know
Buddha was dancing
Underneath the fig oak tree
He was ready to cross over
He was ready
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe
But it's better if you don't
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you
When you're ready to let go
I was sitting by the Ganji
Looking for another way
But all roads lead to Heaven
No matter what, they say
Preacher was a good man
Why was he so blue?
He was ready to cross over
He was ready
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe
But it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you
When you're ready to let go
Play me to heaven
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Every one can get there
Cuz we don't have a soul
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready??
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe
But it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
(3x):
Someone's there to catch you
When you're ready to let go
That's the real thing there
Isn't it?
