Like a flower 
waiting to bloom 
Like a light bulb 

in a dark room 
I'm just sitting here 
waiting for you 
To come on home 

and turn me on... 

Like the desert 
waiting for the rai... ain 

Like a school kid 
waiting for the spring 
I'm just sitting here 
waiting for you 

To come on home 
and turn me on... 

In my poor heart 

it's been so dark 
Since you.... been gone 
After all you're the one 
who turns me off 

You're the only one 
who can turn me back on 
My Hi- Fi is waiting 
for a new tune 

My glass is waiting 
for some fresh ice cubes 
I'm just sittin' here 
waiting for you 

To come on home 
and turn me on 
Turn me on....
