They say that love is wonderful
They say that love is marvelous
Then tell me why did you turn away, boy

1 - Turn away from my love
Turn away, boy
Turn away from my love
Turn away, boy

Twelve o'clock in the noon day
And I'm just getting out of bed
The thoughts of losing you
Are still hanging round my head
I don't know why
I don't know why you left me all alone, boy
Tin bird he flies
Private jets, first class to Texas
What's going on?

Repeat 1

Baby, don't you know that I've been missing you
So bring your lovin' home
Cuz you've been gone too long
I don't know why
I don't know why you left me all alone
Tin bird he flies
Such an empty space inside of me

Repeat 1

Turn away from my love
My love my love
Turn away from my love
My love my love

Since you turned away
Oh, life ain't been worth living
Since you turned away
My love ain't been worth giving
Since you turned away
You see this house is not a home
Since you turned away
Baby I just can't go on since you

Repeat 1 until fade
