Why Did You Turn Me On

NARADA MICHAEL WALDEN, CORRADO RUSTICI, ALLEE WILLIS

You turn away
You don't know what to say
And I close my eyes
To pretend I surprised
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]
