Thats The Way Love Turned Out To Be
(quinton claunch, dave hall & ry cooder)
Brand new day, brave new man
Its a miracle what love can do
All the joys romance can bring
Come smiling down on a heart thats true
When love is real, you cant turn it around
Its like a river running down to the sea
This old world turns around for lovers like you
Its not the way love turned out for me
People in love build a house they can share
Takes a long time to get it just right
But a fire can start in the kitchen somewhere
And burn that little house down over night
That flame burning bright in your heart, I believed that
You turned it on just for me
Another man held that fire, burned our house to the ground
Thats the way love turned out for me
People turn out for the big show
Pretty flowers turn out in the spring
And the light turns out in the kitchen
When somebody pulls on the string
But theres no light burning in my kitchen
And no doors open up with my key
And I aint got no one to turn to
Thats the way love turned out for me

Hot Burning Flames
She left me almost burned out
I couldn't feel a thin'
A walkin' talkin' statue
Afraid to love again
She did everything to kill a flame
But a little spark got through
If she'd a got her way I'd be gone today
If it hadn't been for you
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burning flames
I'm alive with love because of you
When you came to light the fire you knew just what to bring
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burning flames
--- Instrumental ---
She thought she had me down and out
But at the count of nine
A livin' lovin' angel showed up just in time
She thought that I would surely die
Sometimes I wanted to
She had no doubt the fire was out
But she didn't count on you
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burning flames
I'm alive with love because of you
When you came to light the fire you knew just what to bring
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burning flames
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burning flames
I'm alive with love because of you
When you came to light the fire you knew just what to bring
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burnin' flames
You turned cold gray ashes into hot burnin' flames...

Its All Over Now
(bobby and shirley womack)
Baby used to stay out all night long
She made me cry
You know she done me wrong
She held my eyes open and thats no lie
Tables turned and now its her turn to cry
But then I used to love her but its all over now
Yes it is
But then I used to love her but its all over now
Listen
She used to run around with every single man in town
Spent all my money playing her fast game
She put me out, it was a pity how I cried
But the tables turned and now its her turn to cry
Because I used to love her but its all over now
Aint no lie
Because I used to love her but its all over now
Listen
Well I used to wake the morning get my breakfast in bed
When I got worried shed ease my aching head
But now shes here and there with every single man in town
But the tables turned and now its her turn to cry
Because I used to love her but its all over now
Yes it is
Because I used to love her but its all over now
Listen to this one
Because I used to love her but its all over now
But then I used to love her but its all
Now wait a minute
But then I used to love her but you know
But you know its all over now
But then I used to love her but you know its all over now

I Need Time
Five to nine
Early sunday morning around breakfast time
I heard a sudden tapping at the kitchen door
Oh and there was more
Well it was you I saw
No mistake
I knew youd come around that sad look on your face
Then you begged me to come in and I said yes
Oh what a fool I am
I should have turned away
I need time
To turn the time around
To let it all hang out
To fight my fear and fight my doubt
I need time
To turn the time around
(get ahold) of love
Spoken words dont mean enough
No mistake
Remember not to break the promise that you make
Ill meet you fifty fifty in the middle now
And I wont back out
Thered better be no doubt
I need time
To turn the time around
Little did I know that love would bring you to my door
I need time
To turn the time around
Little did I know that love was on our side
I love you you know i
You know I always will love you now
I know I do love you
You know Ill always be true to you my love
Here you stand
Torn up yellow t-shirt and guitar in hand
I wanna love you now
Oh forget the past
I wanna make love last
I need time
To turn the time around
Let it all hang out
Love will bring you back again
I need time
To turn the time around
Little did I know that I love will bring you back again

Please Dont Turn Out The Lights
Evrytime I need reality, in jeopardy of losing all of me
I just am not stronger, life dont last so long , so baby,
If your turned out the light, if you turned out the light,
Please dont turn out the light, please dont turn out the light
Turn out the lights
Baby, I dont feel too reliable
I can only do what Im liable, but if you want to leave me
Love me and just leave me, baby;
If you turned out the light, if you turned out the light
Please dont turn out the light, please dont turn out the light
Turn out the lights

The Flame of Love
I stand with eyes open
Glass
Holding on to you my love
Fire
Burning with passion in my eyes
See
My heart beats for you
Turn around, Hold on
Where to, Are you
One time, Hold tight
My fight, Your right
In a little love for you
Flowers
Red it turns with a passion
Speak
With words of the holiness
Love
With everything I have
For you, Us new
Bring truth, My girl
Turn time, This rhyme
My crime, Your hymn

Real Turned On
Girl, before you go now
Theres one thing I wanted to do
Thats get you to come back
Because I wanna make love to you
Got me real turned on
Yes, you have
But theres something in your eyes
Telling me you have to go
Something in your eyes
But youre trying not to let it show
Got me real turned on
Next time you come over
Ill buy you a bottle of wine
Just take a little drink
And everything will turn out fine
Yes, it will
Whoa baby, do you know
What Ive got in mind
Can you guess what it is
Or do you want it on the line
Got me real turned
Got me real turned
Got me real turned
Got me real turned on

Fire Burns! Fire Burns!
If you like you can enquire
There are rings of fire
There are hearts on fire
There are desert, grass and bush fires
Burning with a red hot rage on a different stage
They burn and mature that one can only admire
O! Fire O! Fire
My heart is on fire
Inside my soul a little flame has transpired
Have my words mis-fired while I speak of fire?
Fire burns like a scorching red-hot sun
And when fire burns its impact is sometimes no fun
Fire burns! Fire burns!
People die, people cry, people sigh
Fire run, run and run
Let's take turns to run before we turn into a bun
When you play with fire your hands will burn
When you lay with fire, heads will surely turn
Fire burns! Fire burns!
A hand pulls a gun and fires
A man goes to work and gets fired
And while I tire, I ask myself am I a liar?
For I speak of the uncontrollable forest fires
That cannot be announced by any town crier
A little spark
A brittle panic attack
A burning flame
A red-hot blaze
In seconds fire can take out an entire space
Fire burns! Fire burns!
And while the fire transpires
I can see the fire in your eyes
A hot passionate desire that flies and flies
And the fire burns and burns
Run, run and run for heads will turn
And the heat will rise like the scorching sun
Fire burns! Fire burns!
I ask silently for a ceasefire
For fire only ignites to inspire more misery
And out of that misery are born some high fliers
Run, run and run for heads will turn
And whatever burns can never be undone

Turn Of The Screw
Do you feel the turn of the screw?
Pushing harder, breaking through
It's better than you ever knew
Now it gets to take care of you
I won't go and tell it
Don't bet you're due
It swings enough to know the truth
It even left you black and blue
Never stop when there's nothing left to do
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
The thing you said you'd never do
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
There's no backing out once you've turned the screw
You never thought what they say could be
One night alone and you would see
I think you'll take back all those doubts
Now you know what the talk was all about
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
The thing you said you'd never do
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
There's no backing out once you've turned the screw
Turn, Turn, Turn it around
Turn, Turn, Turn it here on the ground
Turn, Turn, Turn it around
Turn, Turn, Turn it here on the ground
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
The thing you said you'd never do
The turn of the screw, the turn of the screw
There's no backing out once you've turned the screw
The Turn of the Screw
The Turn of the Screw
The Turn of the Screw
The Turn of the Screw1

I Like This To Be Frank And Simple
you turn me on
even your picture turns me on
as though i am a bird
remembering
bigger wings
to clouds long forgotten
you turn me on
that is a fact that i can no longer deny
my mind whirls
looking for an exit
my super ego says
i must me not be turned on
by a mere you
by a mere picture of you
but you still turn me on
oh i love this feeling of you
turning me on
and my id says let it be
open like a bud let the bee
share the nectar
but there is in me that stays strong
and now
you cannot turn me on
I'm off
closed as a bud
tight as vacuum
falling to the
ground.

Its All Over Now
(bobby & shirley womack)
Well, baby used to stay out all night long
She made me cry and she did me wrong
She had my nose open, thats no lie
The tables have turned, now its her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but its all over now
Because I used to love her, but its all over now
She used to run around with every man in town
She spent all my money tryying to play that high class game
She put me down, it was a pity how I cried
The tables have turned, now its her turn to cry
Because I used to love her, but its all over now
Because I used to love her, but its all over now
I used to wake up in the morning, get my breakfast in bed
Whenever I got worried, she would rub my aching head
But now shes here and there, with every man in town
Still trying to take me for that same old clown
Because I used to love her, but its all over now
Because I used to love her, but its all over now

House On Fire
She strides down 7th street
Smokey night - summer heat
Commotion - concrete fires
Where neon souls are burning
His whole life - a hung jury
She was the crime - Wheel's gonna pay
She's got blue steel; cocked and locked
She is Justice - Justice is burning
She's turning the tables upside down
She's like a flame; she's burning higher
She's like a house on fire - House on fire
Wheel feels lucky - drinkin' blind
One track mind - sheer distraction
Steps on cracks, breakin' backs
Nothin's sacred on the other side
He turns left - she turns right
They both step through the veil of night
Cold blue steel reflection
And Wheel's got nowhere to hide
She's turning the tables upside down
She's like a flame; she's burning higher
She's like a house on fire - House on fire
Players of passion playing with fire
Streetlights are flashing but who are they for
Fisted love fueling fantasy
Is love worth the fire he's asking for

Burning To Burned
You lied to me
I cant believe
That Ive been such a fool
I thought this time
I might find
Someone who would play by the rules
My mind said no
But my heart said go
And again Ive made the wrong turn
Now here I stand
My heart in your hands...
And Ive gone from burning to burned
Ah, youd think by now
Id know how
To keep this heart of mine safe
It goes to show
You just never know
Who can you trust these days
How could I make
The same mistake
But as far as Im concerned
Got myself to blame
Got to close to the flame
Now Ive gone from burning to burned
Everyone knows
The old saying goes
That a fool in love
Never learns
But I guess I forgot
cause the fire was too hot...
Now Ive gone from burning to burned
Oh I guess I forgot
cause the fire was too hot...
Now Ive gone from burning to burned

Dont Turn The Light Out
On my way home I met an
Old friend of mine
We walked and we talked an shared
A bottle of wine
We started to dance and my
Intentions were good
How could I know Id be misunderstood
I promised to call before the weekend
Was thru
Wed all get together sho she could
Meet you
I was just being friendly, I met her
By chance
You gotta believe me - its not a romance
Dont turn the light out, Im starting to see
Dont turn the light out, youre getting to me
Dont turn the light out, were burning so bright
Dont turn the light out.....dont turn the light out
You gotta see it from my point
Of view
The same situation could
Happen to you
I said it was over before she left
Town
I cant believe that youre putting me down
Dont turn the light out, Im starting to see
Dont turn the light out, youre getting to me
Dont turn the light out, were burning so bright
Dont turn the light out.....dont turn the light out
It would be easy if youd lighten up
Do it to please me, enough is enough
All that weve been thru, how can you doubt
The ups an the downs are what lovings about
So dont turn the light out, Im starting to see
Dont turn the light out, youre getting to me
Dont turn the light out, were burning so bright
Dont turn the light out.....dont turn the light out

Dont Turn Away
(coverdale/sykes)
You say your dreams are burned to ashes
And your smiles have turned to tears,
It seems to me you welcome sanest
As you surrender to your fears
So whats a man like me supposed to do
When all I want is just to make love to you
Dont turn away, before the night is over
Dont turn away, before the night is gone
Dont turn away, the night may hold the answer
So dont turn away, before the night,
Before the night is gone
You say your heart is lost forever
And youre always gonna give your love in vain
So you paint yourself a lonely portrait
And hide your love away again
You turn away from what you feel inside,
You cant forget all your foolish pride
Dont turn away, before the night is over
Dont turn away, before the night is gone
Dont turn away, the night may hold the answer
So dont turn away, before the night is gone
So now Im asking you this question
Am I gonna give you all my love in vain
Do you wanna drown in your own sorrow
Or are you gonna try to love again
Dont turn away from what you feel inside,
You should try to forget about all your foolish pride
Dont turn away, before the night is over
Dont turn away, before the night is gone
Dont turn away, the night may hold the answer
So dont turn away, before the night,
Before the night,
Before the night is gone
Dont turn away from me baby,
No, no, no, no.
Dont put me away,
Dont walk away from me darling
I need your love,
Oh baby,
I need your love to rescue me,
An Im coming for you, baby...

Burning Up
Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
You let me down, turned me round, you messed around with my heart
What kind of woman with a smile on her face
Can tear your whole world apart, hey
Im on fire, I feel it burnin up, Im on fire
Im burnin up, burnin up, Im burnin up every night
Im burnin up, burnin up, and burnin up can feel so right
I see the smoke, I feel the heat, my life is going up in flames
How could you be so indiscrete, and still be so unashamed, hey
Im on fire, I feel it burnin up, Im on fire
Hey you said youd never leave me, you said wed never be apart
You turned out to be a liar, and left me with a broken heart
Why did you do it babe, yeah

Im on fire, Im burnin inside, Im on fire, why did you do it baby
Ooh Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Ooh Im burnin up, see Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Watch me burn, see me burnin, cause my hearts on fire
Watch me burn, see me burnin up for your love
Watch me burn, see me burnin up for your love

How Strong

How strong is my love?
How strong is my love?
How strong is my love?
How wrong could it be?
Ill walk a water mile
Rest a while to kiss your smile
Laugh and roll and after a while
Ill begin to like your style

How strong is my love?
How wrong could it be?
She turned me down this time
She turned me down
Lord, I cant believe she
She turned me down
She turned me inside out
She turned me down
All I ask of you
Is turn me up this time

Come on over show me your
Your glow soul I do adore
Ill be sure to drop my guard
Give it up its not that hard

Darker than the darkest night
Living hell and pollocks at you
Getting new down your back

Burning Fire in My Heart
There is a burning fire, within each one's heart
There is a loving desire, within each one's heart
There is a person even higher, within each one's heart
In your heart, is there a thought of the one you love so much more
In your heart, is there a candle burning for the people you care for
In your heart, is there a light for the person who will open the door
In my heart, there is a melody of love so true
In my heart, there is a star made for you
In my heart, there is a love, reaching for the blue
In my heart, there is a burning fire

You Left The Water Running
(r. hall, d. penn, o.franck)
Chorus:
You left the water running
When you left me here behind
You left the water running
Running from these eyes of mine
Running from these eyes of mine
You turned off the life and love
And left with another guy
You turned off all of your love from me
But you forgot to turn off the cry
You forgot to turn off the cry
You pull the shades a way down low
You disconnect the telephone
Oh baby, but these tears, a-running from my eyes
You cant turn em off any, no
No you cant turn em off any, no
(brass solo)
Chorus
You locked the door, left my heart outside
And then you threw the key away (tell em colla)
But youll regret and youll be upset
When you get your water bill to pay
When you get your water bill to pay
