Lyrics of Why Did You Turn Me On by Phyllis Hyman

You turn away
You don′t know what to say
And I close my eyes
To pretend I surprised
Now too many thoughts just crowded in to bed
And the hungry night is begging to be fed
Heart on the line
The stand up to test the time
I guess what is most secure is bound to lose
If love's just a victim of a poor excuse
Why, why did you turn me on
If you knew that one day you′ll be gone
Ohh, why did you shine the light
In the night [Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh]
Tell me why
Where is the door
Love opened to scream for more
Here I understand the nature of the game
But the rules that hurt me most that's never changed
[Chorus]
Why did you turn me on?
[Saxophone solo]
[Chorus w/ ad-libs til fade]
Writer(s): Narada Michael Walden, Allee Willis, Corrado Rustici
