You Turn Me On
The Carlisles Lyrics

I guess I didn't hear you right
I'm surprised that you're saying you want to leave me, it must be hard for you to voice this out

Did you say that you were leaving me?
Are you serious about leaving me?

You really must be feeling bad
You must be feeling sad or hopeless or perhaps you're going through something difficult

To say those kinds of things to me
It hurts to hear you say that

I'm sorry that you feel that way
I'm sorry that our relationship isn't going the way we thought it would

Because I Thought that we really had it made
I believed that our relationship was solid and we would be together forever

That you and I were gonna last
I believed that we would grow old and happy together

I guess it's fair to let you know
I think it's only fair to tell you that you need me more than I need you

You're nothing without me
You won't be able to survive or move on without me

I wouldn't walk out that door
I wouldn't just leave you stranded and heartbroken

Or you may find out the hard way
You'll experience the consequences of your decision in a painful way

Just what love is for
I hope you learn that love isn't just about fleeting happiness or excitement, it's about making sacrifices and commitment

You'll never fall in love again
You'll never find love that's as strong and true as ours once was

Because there's only one me and you
Our relationship was one-of-a-kind and it's impossible to recreate it with someone else

Why pretend?
There's no point in pretending that things will work out if you leave me because they won't

So you want to be someone new
You're tired of our relationship and want a change

You want to go and have a ball
You want to enjoy life and have fun without any emotional baggage

The party's been missing you
People have been wanting to hang out with you and have fun

Baby, can't you hear them call?
Can't you hear people asking for you to come out and enjoy some fun

Well, I won't stand in your way
I won't hold you back from your decision of wanting a new life without me.

I just want to
I just want to help you by giving you some advice

Give you a little free advice
I have some free pieces of advice that could help you avoid trouble down the road

I'd like to help you help yourself
I want to help you discover how you can achieve things on your own

Save you some trouble on the way
I don't want you to go through difficult times in your new life sans me, so let me help you avoid it.

But the person that you used to be
The person you used to be won't exist if you decide to go ahead with your plan

Do you remember what a drag it was
Do you remember how lonely, boring and sad life was before you fell in love with me?

Being so lonely?
Life was too bleak when I wasn't with you.

But a ship without a sail
You'll be lost like a ship that has no rudder

Alone in the middle of a dead, calm sea
You'll be so alone in a calm, uneventful world without any direction or motivation

Standing still
You'll be exactly where you are, with no change or progress

But a person in a sad cafe
You'll be alone in a sad, unfamiliar place, trying to find comfort in some melancholy place

May I suggest dinner for one
Can I recommend a solo dinner as a mere suggestion before you embark on your journey?

Before you go on your way?
Before you continue on for the rest of your life
