Phyllis Hyman - Why Did You Turn Me On текст песни

You turn away
You don't know what to say
And I close my eyes
Defeated by surprise
Now too many thoughts just crowded in to bed
And the hungry night is begging to be fed

Heart on the line
The stand up to test the time
I guess what is most secure is bound to lose
If love's just a victim of a poor excuse

Why, why did you turn me on
If you knew that one day you'll be gone
Ohh, why did you shine the light

In the night [Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh]

Tell me why

Where is the door
Love opened to scream for more
Here I understand the nature of the game
But the rules that hurt me most that's never changed

[Chorus]

Why did you turn me on?

[Saxophone solo]

[Chorus w/ ad-libs til fade]
