Song lyrics Turn to stone by Electric Light Orchestra

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 echoes of the daylight
Of ev'ryting that is alive in my blue world

I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you?re 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
Turning, turning, turning
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 when you are gone, I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you?re comin' home, I can't go on
Turn to stone when you are 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
I turn to stone, I turn to stone
You will return again some day to my blue world

I turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you?re comin' home, I can't go on
Turn to stone when you are gone, I turn to stone
