James Carr - That's The Way Love Turned Out For Me lyrics

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 overnight 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
