George Jones - I'm Not Ready Yet

I've always said that someday I was gonna leave you
Some April when all the land is wet
Some spring, summer, fall or maybe winter
I'll leave someday but I'm not ready yet

I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying
But I passed up every date that I ever set
But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me it's ready
But I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet

You know, I must have left you a hundred times but you don't know that
'Cause I was afraid I'd be ashamed that you'd laugh when you found out just how far I'd get
But you didn't, and you don't, I know you ain't gonna ever
And someday I'll go, but I'm not ready yet

I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying
But I passed up every date, this ol' boy ever set
But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me, "George, we're ready"
I'm still around 'cause I'm not ready yet
I'm still around 'cause I'm not ready yet
