The city streets are empty now (The lights don't shine no more) And so the songs are way down low Turning Turning Turning A sound that flows into my mind (The echos of the daylight) Of everything that is alive In my blue world. I turn to stone When your are gone I turn to stone Turn to stone when you comin' home I can't go on The dying embers of the night (A fire that slowly fades to dawn) Still glow upon the wall so bright Burning Burning Burning The tired streets that hide away (From here to ev'rywhere they go) Roll past my door into the day In my blue world. I turn to stone ... Turn to stone When you're gone I turn to stone. Yes I'm turning to stone 'Cause you ain't comin' home Why ain't you comin' home If I'm turning to stone You've been gone for so long And I can't carry on Yes I'm turning I'm turning I'm turning to stone The dancing shadows on the wall (The two step in the hall) Are all I see since you've been gone Turning Turning Turning Through all I sit here and I wait (l turn to stone I turn to stone) You will return again some day To my blue world I turn to stone ... Turn to stone when you are gone I turn to stone I turn to stone When you are gone I turn to stone Turn to stone when you comin' home I can't go on turn to stone When your are gone I turn to stone.
