Ron Hawkins - Turn Around

When did the room start spinning?
When did the blinds get drawn?
When did the wolves start winning?
I turned around and you were gone

When did the leaves start falling?
When did the trees get so bare?
When did the lake freeze over?
I turned around and you weren't there

How did our creed get re-worded?
How did our yes become a no?
How did the street get so deserted?
I turned around and watched you go

When did our stock start falling?
When did you unplug your phone?
When did we just stop calling?
I turned around and no one's home
I turned around and no one's home

Some things won't stay put anymore
Lovers, lives and keys
When you turn your back to the door
They ever so quietly leave

Why does your sweet heart stutter?
Why are your hands so cold?
Why do you sound just like your mother?
I turned around and we got old
I turned around and we got old
Turned around
We got turned around
