Ayo ladadayo   Ayo ladadayo ladeeda      Sometimes I give in to sadness   Sometimes I don't   Doo doo doo doo   At times I'm part of the madness   Sometimes I won't   Give in to you      You see in a way   I have been driftin' down a river to nowhere   And you've given me nothing      But if you're ready to be my everything   If you're ready to see it through this time   And if you're ready for love then, this I will bring   But I'm not gonna wait for you forever this time   Ladeeda ayo, ladadayo ladeeda      At times I feel myself smiling   At times, I'm not   Doo doo doo doo   Hey yeah   What's with that guilt that you styling baby talk   Don't look good on you      You see in a way   I have been lookin' for a reason to go there   And you're leadin' me nowhere      And if you're ready to be my everything   If you're ready to see it through this time   And if you're ready for love then, this I will bring   But I'm not gonna wait for you forever this time   Ladeeda ayo, ladadayo ladeeda      Are you waiting for a special occasion   To give me your heart   'Cause I need a little confirmation   To make a real start   Don't wait till it's too late   Are you ready to show me?   Are you ready to love me?      You see in a way   I have been driftin' down a river to nowhere   And you're givin' me nothing      And if you're ready to be my everything   If you're ready to see it through this time   And if you're ready for love then this I will bring   But I'm not gonna wait for you forever this time      And if you're ready to be, ready to be my everything   And if you're ready to see it through this time   If you're ready for love then this I will bring   I'm not gonna wait for you forever this time   Ladeeda ayo, ladadayo ladeeda
