[rock ballad with a melissa etheridge throaty, angsty, guttural feel]
I can’t tell you
What I’m feeling
My heart is pounding
My head is reeling
My heart and soul are
What you’re stealing
As you’re turning away…
**
You can’t hear me
I’ve lost my voice
The world is silent
Not one small noise
Could there tru-ly be
No other choice?
No, you’re still turning away.
**
And now I see that you’re
Needing to breathe
And I’m watching you go…
Its not that you and me
Were even meant to be
I wasn’t ready to know.
**
**
I’m all alone again…
Yeah, here I stand
Won’t you turn back around
Just take my hand
The truth sinks slowly in
That’s not the plan
You’re simply turning away…
**
Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.
Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…
Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.
Turn, turn, turn,
My turn to stray…
**
Now I can slowly hear
The world outside
I know I only was
Here for the ride
If I knew a way
I’d be at your side
Instead . . . I’m turning away.
**
Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away…
Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…
Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.
Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…
Turn, turn, turn,
I’m turning away.
