a letter to Ama

December 25th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Dear Ama

How are you? How’s uncle and your two boys?

It has been a while since I wrote something to you. I would hope that you would forgive me for this. It has been some months since I had not look back to what I had left in

Perth

. Things have changed, but still, I am your daughter always…

How is

Perth

? I guess Australian are still keen in talking about the weather. I believe in this time of the year, the weather is not that good. I mean, I have been there, done that, it must have been very warm down there. We had lots of rain for the past few days. I have the privilege to not washing my car because of some reasons. Beside I do not think I have the time.

Most of my 24 hours and 7 days spent on this square desk at my office. I had no idea that one day I will be tied up with a job. It is not like when we used to work at Maya Masala. I was terrified physically and emotionally. Now, it is something else…

People started to depends on me and I was not thinking of ready fulfilling those expectations. People see me at many degrees. Some positive and some negative. Some has hopes and some has suspicion. Some are being supportive, and some can be very unhelpful. I was not thinking that I am ready to stand up on my own and make some people stand for me.

I guess life was so much simpler when we used to be together. Life was only about doing assignment, making dinner with a budget, getting from one bus to another and walking to Northbridge picking you up. And of course, what could be better than a fine dinner at your place?

I miss you so much and I really miss all the mother and daughter moments. I still have all your recipes. Not in my computer, not in my recipes collection, not even in my brain. It’s in my heart, and I have no idea what are they doing there…

My family started too worried about how I live. Then I took one Sunday morning to rethink everything all over again, what were I and other people thinking? What is the point of getting up, working, making money and trying very hard to get a good night sleep?

This is where the “religious” have to come in a place. What was I thinking?

However, do not worry; it only took me one fine day to realize everything. There was a time when I had lunch with my cousin. We talked about life. A talked that we used to dreamt of when we were a little girl: someday, we will talk about a life. And grown up life.

She was very surprise when I had the master plan just came out from my strategic marketing book. It was too realistic and sophisticated, she wasn’t sure that was a life (I’m sure she thought that was just one of my plans for this product I was trying to develop). No, it was I, I am the product and I’m trying to develop it.

Then she asked me to rethink-think-think again. What was the problem with miracle? Why wasn’t it in the plan? That is where I try to borrow the

Perth

’s spirit. And there it was… a miracle…

When I stepped to

Perth

for the first time, I didn’t have any plan. I see my self as drowning in an oasis. Just let it flow. Expect the unexpected and just DO IT!

In that one fine day, I’m trying to put on my swimming gears and swim in that OASIS. Just do it! And yeah, I did it…

I met this moment, I met this situation and I met this person. As I want to, I wasn’t expecting anything from this person. Just do it, just feel it, just enjoy it. And I realize that when we expected it the last, you would realize it actually come first. My life changed like a flipped coins. Just in those seconds, my plans ended up in my laptop and I’m ready to deal with my flexible plan with him. It also changed how I feel and treat lives surround me.

Still, I’m sad because I couldn’t share this happiness with you and your family. All those suggestions and wise thought that you told me are singing in my head when I talk to people, as if those wise thought are my own. I miss my mother.

In this Christmas day, I miss you the most. I’m wishing you the best Christmas ever and please don’t ever forget me madam…

I hope that I can bring him down to

Perth

and introduce him to you and everybody. It has been always a pleasure for me to share my happiness with you and your family, just like I have always share it with you. Thank you for everything mother…

Love you

Ramadhan Tahun Ini

October 18th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Qt327 Ramadhan ini rasanya berbeda dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Ada hal-hal yang datang dan pergi selama 25 tahun aku hidup dan mewarnai Ramadhan aku dari tahun ke tahun. Masing-masing memberikan arti tersendiri dalam mengingat bagaimana bentuk Ramadhan itu. Yah, dan tahun ini Ramadhan sangat berbeda.

Ada di suatu masa dimana Ramadhan itu sama sekali ga ada artinya untuk aku (dan mungkin ini terkesan ekstrim banget buat orang-orang terdekat aku). But it’s true. Non of them had meanings towards me for some years. I may not expressed it correctly, tapi aku ga liat ada hikmah yang bisa aku ambil disana. Aku merasa aku tidak harus mensyukuri apa-apa yang telah aku punya. What I had, is something that I gain from all my efforts! I did it, and I deserved it!

Ada di suatu masa di mana Ramadhan itu ngebuat aku mikir beribu-ribu kali, should I have another Ramadhan next year? Bagi sebahagian orang, pertanyaan ini absurb dan retorik banget. Tapi kenapa coba kita ga nanya sekali-kali sama diri kita sendiri? If you weren’t sure about something, why not ask yourself whether you want it in the first place? Kemudian aku tanya donk sama diri aku, is this what I want in life?

Ada di suatu masa dimana Aku uda mulai yakin tapi butuh re-inforcement dari seseorang. Bukan seseorang yang menghakimi aku dan Menunjuk apa yang harus dan tidak harus aku lakukan. Bukan seseorang yang bisa memetik hikmah Ramadhan itu dan memberikannya untukku. Masa dimana aku sedang mencari diriku sendiri, Mencari hikmah Ramadhan itu sendiri, dan Mencari seseorang yang bisa aku ajak kesana.

Dan Ramadhan ini terasa begitu berbeda. Ramadhan ini terasa tidak membuatku sendirian. Aku merasa lebih khusyuk dan bersukur. Hidup ini bukan milik aku sendiri, Rencana hidup aku bukan rencana aku sendiri, rejekiku bukan hanya dari tangan dan kakiku sendiri. Semua ini adalah rejeki dari- Nya, dan sudah seharusnya aku syukuri. Ramadhan ini, ada seseorang yang bersedia berjalan disampingku dan menemaniku memetik hikmah Ramadhan. Ada seseorang yang membuatku melihat ke belakang dan membuatku menyesal: begitu banyak yang harusnya aku syukuri. Thank you sayang…

Ramadhan Dinner

October 7th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Dscf2883 Yang paling aku inget dari Ramadhan adalah: Dinner with flat 27! I miss you guys so much!!!

Aku inget dulu pernah iseng aja sih nempelin jadwal berbuka puasa di pintu kulkas dapur. Ternyata yang paling sering liat jadwal itu tuh si Sonia, Grace dan Raymi! Mereka yang selalu ngingetin jam berapa buka puasa plus nyiapin makanan-2 buat aku.

Padahal namanya juga cuma buka puasa, roti ama teh manis juga udah ngaruh lah. Tapi ga gitu, Sonia, Grace dan Raymi pasti gantian masakin aku sesuatu, serasa aku bener-bener kaya’ orang yang kelaparan. Grace dengan Mie dan makanan-makanan penuh jamur dan bawang putih, Sonia dan Tuna pasta bake atau steaknya, dan Raymi dengan Kari Indianya! aduhhhhhh kangen sama masakannya mereka…

Yang paling indah itu bukan tentang masakan-masakan gratis yang mereka cekokin ke aku, tapi tentang kebersamaan. Pengorbanan mereka untuk makan malam lebih awal supaya bisa nemenin aku buka puasa, gimana care-nya mereka karena puasanya aku, dan KEBERSAMAAN yang kami share setiap berbuka puasa. Itu ngebuat aku BERUSAHA untuk selalu buka puasa di rumah.

Aku jadi ngebayangin gimana kalo ntar aku buka puasa di tempat/moment/orang yang beda yah hehehehe

I’m in LOVE (I can’t believe this)

September 23rd, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Perlu beberapa saat buat aku untuk sit back and relax, trus nafas…Hmm…Am I dreaming or what?! here’s the story:

Agak berat buat aku untuk ngakuin kalo akhirnya aku nemuin seseorang. Seorang Kitty bisa falling in love? After those vows about feminism & Independent? Well what do you know?

He’s just nice. He’s just good. Too good to be true (yah, that’s the word!) He’s just too good to be true for me.

Rosesbg2Semua yang terjadi antara aku dengan dia, kaya’ Jawaban dari doa-doa aku selama ini (ternyata diem-diem aku berdoa juga supaya dikasih belahan hati). Everything happened just Nice…

setelah dia dateng, semuanya jadi ga penting lagi. All the money, all the works, career plans, ambitions, nothing. Nothing is more important than to love him more each and every day. I don’t know whether it is normal, and guess what? I don’t really care if people told me I was out of my mind and being too Kitty (read: Spontanious)

Having this rollercoaster with him are just too fun to be true, and having him in my life is just the sweetest thing that ever happened to me in my whole life. and I’m sure I’ll be getting sweeter things more each and every day when I finally spend my life with him. I love him, what can I say?

I still can’t believe this. Believing that I’m in love, Believing that I think less bout my self and revolving my life around him, believing that someday, he’ll be mine, believing that GOD still loves me and giving me the best out of everything (cause I’m sure he’s the best for me).

I’m in love and I like it! (Still trying to believe it though…)

My Bestgirls!

July 1st, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

ada salah satu lagu Destiny’s Child yang tiba-tiba bisa buat aku bengong. Soalnya semua yang dibilang di lirik bener-bener pernah aku alamin. Baik sebagai temen yang baik, atau sebagai temen yang buruk, baik waktu aku dalam kesusahan, atau waktu aku ngebantuin temen-temen yang ngalamin kesusahan juga. Check the song out Man!

Girls [Beyonce]
Take a minute girl, come sit down
And tell us what’s been happening (kadang kita merasa berat untuk curhat)
In your face I can see the pain 
(tapi mereka selalu tau kalo kita sedang sedih)
Don’t you try to convince us that you’re happy
(walau kita selalu pura-pura tegar)
We’ve seen this all before
(karena masalah cinta adalah masalah yang universal kan?)
But he’s taking advantage of the passion
( kita buta untuk ngeliat ke-BRENGSEK-an seseorang)
Because we’ve come too far
(dan itu membuat kita jauh dari sahabat-sahabat yang lebih objektif)
For you to feel alone (dan mereka akan selalu mencoba untuk selalu bersama kita)
You don’t let him walk over your heart
(walaupun kita merasa mereka selalu berlebihan)
I’m telling you
(tapi mereka akan selalu ada bila kita akhirnya benar-benar terjatuh…)

Image048

[chorus]
Girl, I can tell you’ve been crying
( ingat ketika akhirnya kita harus mengakui bahwa kita terluka?)
And you needing somebody to talk to (berat rasanya untuk menekan ego dan mengakuinya kan?)
Girl, I can tell he’s been lying (cinta bisa membuat kita buta akan sekitar)
And pretending that he’s faithful and he loves you (hanya dia yang terlihat di pelupuk kan?)
Girl, you don’t have to be hiding (segala yang indah terlihat indah)
Don’t you be ashamed to say he hurt you (segala luka tetap terlihat indah)
I’m your girl, you’re my girl, we your girls (tapi sahabat melihat dengan kepala yang lebih jernih)
Don’t you know that we love ya (karena mereka mencintaimu tanpa conditional)

Qt195

[Kelly]
See, what y’all don’t know about him (kita semua memang butuh seseorang)
Is I can’t let him go because he needs me (untuk berbagi hati dan masa depan)
It ain’t really him, it’s stress from his job (tapi dia bukan segalanya kan?)
And I ain’t making it easy (dan waktu dia pergi kita serasa kehilangan segalanya)
I know you see him bugging most of the time(serasa sendiri didunia)
But I know deep inside, he don’t mean it (dan tersadar bahwa kita telah menyia-nyiakan teman)
It gets hard sometimes (tidak tahu harus mulai dari mana lagi)
But I need my man (tapi para sahabat tidak akan meninggalkanmu begitu saja)
I don’t think y’all understand (mereka akan selalu ada)
I’m telling you (jaraknya hanya dari tempatmu dan telfonmu saja)

[chorus]
Girl, I can tell you’ve been crying (aku bersukur bahwa aku punya para sahabat-sahabat)
And you needing somebody to talk to (yang selalu setia mendengarkan hatiku)
(we understand, don’t be ashamed of your friend)(walaupun aku tiada berbicara)
Girl, I can tell he’s been lying (oh, I can tell he’s been lying to you)(yang menangis)
And pretending that he’s faithful and he loves you (he’s not good for you)(ketika ku tak bisa)
Girl, you don’t have to be hiding (yang tertawa lega)
Don’t you be ashamed to say he hurt you (ketika aku senang dan terluap-luap kan bahagia)
I’m your girl, you’re my girl, we your girls (aku bersukur bahwa aku punya energi itu)
Don’t you know that we love ya (untuk selalu berbagi  bersama mereka)

Qt040

Girl, I can tell you’ve been crying (girl, I can tell you been crying) (tidak ingin kubiarkan mereka)
And you needing somebody to talk to (I can see it in your eyes) (selalu menangis sendirian)
Girl, I can tell he’s been lying (I can tell he’s been lying) (karna ku tak pernah sendiri lagi)
And pretending that he’s faithful and he loves you (I can see it in you) (setelah kubersama mereka)
Girl, you don’t have to be hiding (I know what your feeling girl) (aku bersukur bahwa mereka)
Don’t you be ashamed to say he hurt you (para sahabat-sahabat)
I’m your girl, you’re my girl, we your girls (yang akan selalu berusaha membuka mataku)
Don’t you know that we love ya (ketika aku buta dan tersesat)

[Michelle]
(Girl) girl, take a good look at yourself (hey, coba lihat dirimu)
He got you going through hell (ia membuatmu menuju neraka)
We ain’t never seen ya down like this (kami tiada pernah melihatmu seperti ini)
What you mean, you don’t need us to help(yg kamu maksud, kamu ga mau kami tolong)
We known each other too well (kita terlalu saling mengenal)
I’m your girl, you’re my girl, we your girls(aku sahabatmu, kau sahabatku, kami sahabatmu)
And don’t you know we love ya(tidakkah kau tau kami mencintaimu?)

Yeah

[chorus]
Girl, I can tell you’ve been crying (girl)(kami tau kau sedang menangis)
And you needing somebody to talk to (dan butuh seseorang untuk berbicara)
Girl, I can tell he’s been lying (hey, kami tau kalo dia sedang berbohong)
(I been knowin’ you since you was ten(kit saling mengenal sejak umur 10)
You cannot hide from your friends, girl)(kau tidak bisa menyembunyikannya)
And pretending that he’s faithful and he loves you (berpura-pura kalau ia setia dan mencintaimu)
Girl, you don’t have to be hiding (kau tidak harus selalu menyembunyikannya)
Don’t you be ashamed to say he hurt you (jangan malu untuk berkata kalau ia tlah melukaimu)
I’m your girl, you’re my girl, we your girls (aku sahabatmu, kau sahabatku, kami sahabatmu)
Don’t you know that we love ya (tidakkah kau tau kami mencintaimu?)

a tribute to all my bestfriends!

Seorang teman di Pelangi Calang

June 19th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan salah satu sahabatku, dia telah berubah. Aku kira ia masih menjadi kelopak putih yang selalu berusaha kami jaga agar ia tidak kan gugur satu persatu. Ia terlalu putih, suci dan lemah. Tapi ia tiada lagi seperti itu

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan seorang wanita, bukan gadis, ya, ia telah berubah. Ia telah memilih jalan-jalan berbelukar karena ia yakin bahwa jalan itu kan menuntunnya kejalan yang lebih lebar dan indah. Jalan itulah yang ia pilih dan kehendaki karena ia telah, sedang dan akan bahagia karenanya.

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan seorang pejuang, dan dia suka perubahan itu. Ia telah menerima dirinya apa adanya dan berupaya untuk berjuang melawan apa saja, SENDIRIAN. Satu persatu tangan yang memegangnya dilepas, karena ia ingin berjalan sendirian. Tangan-tangannya akan menggapai tangan-tangan lain yang membutuhkannya. Dan ia bahagia karenanya

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan seorang Pecinta, dan ia cinta perubahan. Ia telah menemukan seseorang yang terpisah jarak, kultur dan Jalan hidup. Tapi ia mencintai seluruh perbedaan dan jarak itu seolah itu tangga-tangga tantangan yang harus ia hadapi. Ia tahu suatu hari mereka tidak akan bersama, tetap ia tegar, percaya, berusaha, pasrah, dan BAHAGIA. Ia telah bahagian dengan apapun yang ia putuskan, dan dia TIDAK GILA

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan seorang sahabat, dan ia telah memberikan aku perubahan yang signifikan. Ia telah mengajarkan aku bahwa hidup tidak akan berarti tanpa perubahan bagi diri kita dan apa yang bisa kita ubah menjadi lebih baik bagi diri orang lain. Ia telah mengajarkan aku bahwa hidup itu bisa indah bila kita menghiasnya dengan hal-hal yang kita cintai: pekerjaan, teman, kekasih, tantangan, tantangan, tantangan. Dan aku suka nasehat itu

Hari ini aku bertemu dengan seorang Pelangi dari Calang, dan aku berharap aku bisa lebih dekat dengan dirinya. Aku berharap dapat selalu mendukungnya selayaknya seorang sahabat, baik secara fisik dan mental. Dan aku menyukai persahabatan ini.

We really proud of you and Will miss you heaps! and this song is for you:

Every Kinda People

Said the fight to make ends meet
Keeps a man upon his feet
Holding down his job
Trying to show he can’t be bought

Ooh, it takes every kind of people
To make what life’s about, yeah
Ooh every kind of people
To make the world go round

Someone’s looking for a lead
In his duty to a King or to a creed
Protecting what he feels is right
Fights against wrong with his life

There’s no profit in deceit
Honest men know that
Revenge do not taste sweet
Whether yellow, black or white
Each and every man’s the same inside

Ooh, It takes every kind of people
To make what life’s about, yeah
It takes every kind of people
To make the world go round

You know that love’s the only goal
That could bring a peace to any soul
Hey, and every man’s the same
He wants the sunshine in his name

Ooh, It takes every kind of people
To make what life’s about, yeah
It takes every kind of people
To make the world go round

It takes every kind of people
To make what life’s about, yeah
Every kind of people
To make the world go round

Every kind of people
To make what life’s about, yeah
Every kind of people
To make the world go round

OUR FRIENSDHIP will never END!

June 17th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

W_mba_liawira Kami memulainya semua dari NOL. Kami sama-sama ngarapin untuk ketemu dengan orang-orang baru dan mau berbagi apa saja, karena kami ber-3 sadar kami ga akan bisa hidup sendiri. Kami juga sadar kalo segala ke-independent-an yang kami pupuk dari tempat masing-masing, harus berusaha dikikis. Aku belajar untuk jadi lebih dependended sama 2 orang ini.

Walaupun mereka berdua ini ga nyadar, tapi aku percaya banget, banyak sekali yang udah mereka kasih buat aku. Financially, Physically, Emotionally, semuanya deh! Living there for almost 2 years wont be the same without these 2 people. I love them by HEART.

Mereka berdua jadi salah satu alasan kenapa aku berat banget ninggalin tempat itu. Berat karena aku takut, apa aku bisa ketemu sama mereka lagi? apa aku bisa hang-out dan masak bareng, becanda, jalan, curhat, berantem dan baikan lagi sama mereka. Aku takut ternyata the world isn’t that small at all

Kadang aku suka ngerasa kesepian disini, walaupun sekitar rasanya uda riuh. I was afraid that there aren’t any people that know me by heart like these two. Would they understand me? would they always love me as much as these people does?  would they read my mind like these people do?

For your information Lia and Wira, I miss you guys so much! And wishing you guys are here all the time with me

I’ll never fall in love with you again

June 16th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

Qt113_1 Pernah ga ngerasain kalo kita beruntung banget kalo seseorang yang "pernah kita cintai" udah pergi meninggalkan kita? Pindah sekolah, pindah kota, pindah negara, pindah planet mungkin? Rasanya seluruh perasaan bisa abis disitu aja, jadi kita sanggup mulai sesuatu yang baru kan?

Well, gimana kalo dia balik lagi? Ada satu lagu yang terus nyanyi dan nyanyi lagi di kepala aku waktu hal itu harus terjadi (tentu saja itu beribu-ribu tahun yang lalu). Judulnya Again-Janet Jackson. Lagu itu kaya Cheesecake: nyebelin, enak, dan pengen lagi dan lagi. Tapi seiring dengan orang itu pergi, kita juga uda eneg nih sama Cheesecake.

Tiba-tiba kemaren aku dapet Dejavu, dan lagu itu harus aku nyanyiin lagi. kali ini bukan tentang aku, tapi tentang seseorang yang deket sama aku. Dan saat ini aku lagi kangen aja ama dia, so I dedicate this song for her. I know she’ll kill me for this.

So, enjoy the song D, and good luck with your OC "new season"! hahahahaha

AGAIN

I heard from a friend today And she said you were in town
Suddenly the memories came back to me in my Mind

How can I be strong I’ve asked myself, Time and time I’ve said
That I’ll never fall in love with you again

A wounded heart you gave, My soul you took away
Good intentions you had many, I know you did

I come from a place that hurts, And God knows how I’ve cried
And I never want to return, Never fall again

Making love to you Oh it felt so good and Oh so right

So here we are alone again’ Didn’t think it’d come to this
And to know it all began With just a little kiss

I’ve come too close to happiness To have it swept away
Don’t think I can take the pain, No never fall again

Kinda late in the game and my heart is in Your hands
Don’t you stand there and then Tell me you love Me then leave again
Cause I’m falling in love with You again

Hold me, Hold me, Don’t ever let me go
Say it just one time, Say you love me
God knows I do Love you Again

No Reply

Pernah ga ngerasa bertepuk sebelah tangan? Jangan heran, kalo diliat dari rasio, kemungkinan kita untuk bisa bertepuk sebelah tangan itu BESAR SEKALI loh. bayangkan, kalo 1 orang itu hanyak diciptakan untuk 1 orang, berarti proses pencarian 1 orang itu harus melewati tahap trial and error. dan mungkin ga semuanya bisa nyambung, yang akhirnya mengakibatkan bertepuk sebelah tangan.

Alhamdulillah sih sampe sekarang aku belon pernah ngerasain bertepuk sebelah tangan. Mungkin karena expectation aku kepada cowo-cowo yang aku demenin ga pernah terlalu besar, jadi ga ada rasa sakit hati gitu lah.

Salah satu lagu yang aku temuin di koleksi Jazz aku ngegambarin gmana bertepuk sebelah tangan itu bisa nyakitinnnnnnnnn banget, dan ngebuat aku mikir untuk tidak memberikan harapan-harapan yang bisa membuat orang lain menepukku (yang akhirnya tidak bisa aku balas), atau malah bersiap-siap bila aku harus menepuk tanpa berbalas. Yah, no reply itu biasa kan?

So this song is for you all,

I CAN’T MAKE YOU LOVE ME (George Michale or Barbara Morisson)

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don’t patronize
Don’t patronize me

’cause I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart, and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no you won’t
And I can’t make you love me
If you don’t

I’ll close my eyes and then I won’t see
The love you do not feel, when you’re holding me
Morning will come, and I’ll do what’s right
Just give me till then, to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

And I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
And here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no, you won’t
And I can’t make you love me
If you don’t

Ain’t no use in you trying
It’s no good for me baby without love
All my tears, all these years, everything I believed in
Baby
Oh yeah
Someone’s gonna love me
(return to top)

I’m ready for LOVE

June 14th, 2005 by kittyfeliciana

pernah ngerasa gak kalo kita gak siap untuk sebuah perubahan dalam hidup kita? mencintai seseorang lagi mungkin? Lagu ini salah satu yang pernah ngebuat aku mikir untuk beraniin diri, take chances untuk bisa punya seseorang lagi. Listen to his words, and coba tanya sama diri kamu masing-masing (bagi yang masi jomblo juga), are you ready for love?

HEAVEN HELP - Lenny Kravitz

There comes a time
To be free of the heart
I wanna be ready
Ready to start
On a love journey
Got places to go
Made up my mind
And I have got to let you know

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks through my door
’cause I decided right now
I’m ready for love

A funny feeling’s coming
Over me
Now I’m inspired and open to being
In a love place
But it’s out of my hands
I’m telling you baby that you got to understand

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks though my door
’cause I decided right now
I’m ready for love
Ready for love

I can’t see what’s out there for me
And I know love offers no guarantee
I’ll take a chance and i’m
Telling you something babe
I got to let you know

Heaven help the heart
That lets me inside
Heaven help the one
Who comes in my life
Heaven help the fool
That walks through my door
’cause I decided right now
I’m ready for love

Ready for love
Take a chance
Take the chance on love
The heart, the fool
