about

Do you remember the moment you fell in love? Maybe it was waking up beside your lover one morning, the light streaming through their window; your bodies entwined beneath the blankets and you couldn't bring yourself to leave their side. Finding love again can be scary. Will it feel the same? Will your heart swell when you hear their name; see their smile?

In "Ready for a Change," Anne O'Rourke explores the moment when you're ready to fall in love again.

lyrics

Who can compare?
Who can say
That the love we once had will come back someday?
How will it feel?
How will we know
If it's a familiar feeling or one we won't know?

Morning light streams through your window
I can't bring myself to leave

A new hand
A new face
A new smile asking for embrace
A new voice
A new name
All I know it's not the same and I know
I'm ready for a change

I'll show you my heart
Please be kind
Time has passed since it's been borrowed
Keep that in mind
With just one look
So much is said
Both of us brimming with brightness
We look to what could be next

The smell of you lingers on my skin
I like you on my skin

All I know it's not the same and I know
I'm ready for a change
