Lyrics

Mellow Man

[Verse]

Mellow man

Don't let this wide smile fool you

It ain't coming from the inside

[Verse]

Every night

I listen out for an answer

Hoping this pain won't last

For long

[Chorus]

Trying to begin again

This time I'll be ready

Ready for love

Ready to love

This time I'll be ready

This time

Ready for love

Ready for love

I'll be ready

Ready to love
