Brand new day, brave new man
|
It's a miracle what love can do
|
All the joys romance can bring
|
Come smiling down on a heart that's true
|
When love is real, you can't turn it around
|
It's like a river running down to the sea
|
This old world turns around for lovers like you
|
It's 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
|
That's 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 there's no light burning in my kitchen
|
And no doors open up with my key
|
And I ain't got no one to turn to
|
That's the way love turned out for me
|

THAT'S THE WAY LOVE TURNED OUT TO BE
