"Turn Me On"

Like a flower waiting to bloom
Like a light bulb in a dark room
I am here waiting for you to come on home and turn me on
Like the desert waiting for rain
Like a school kid waiting for spring
I am sittin' here waiting for you to come on back home and turn me on
My poor heart, it's been so dark
Since you've been gone
After all you're the one that turned me off
Now you're the only one that can turn me back on
Oooh
My hi-fi's waiting for a new tube
And my glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes
I'm just sittin' here waiting for you to come home
And turn me on.
