The city streets
Streets are empty now
The lights don&#039;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 everything that is alive
In my blue world
I turn to stone when you are gone
I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you comin&#039; home
I can&#039;t go on
The dying embers of the night
A fire that slowly fades till dawn
Still glow upon the wall so bright
Turning turning turning
The tired streets that hide away
From here to everywhere 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 comin&#039; home
I can&#039;t go on
Yes, I&#039;m turnin&#039; to stone
&#039;cos you ain&#039;t comin&#039; home
Why you ain&#039;t comin&#039; home
If I&#039;m turnin&#039; to stone?‎
You&#039;ve been gone for so long
And I can&#039;t carry on
Yes, I&#039;m turnin&#039;, I&#039;m turnin&#039;‎
I&#039;m turnin&#039; to stone
The dancing shadows on the wall
The two-step in the hall
Are all I see since
You&#039;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
Chorus
I turn to stone when you are gone
I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you comin&#039; home
I can&#039;t go on
I turn to stone when you are gone
I turn to stone
Turn to stone when you comin&#039; home
I can&#039;t go on

Turn To Stone

by Electric Light Orchestra

Lyrics & chords · Original key

The city streets

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 everything that is alive

In my blue world

I turn to stone when you 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 till dawn

Still glow upon the wall so bright

Turning turning turning

The tired streets that hide away

From here to everywhere 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 comin' home

I can't go on

Yes, I'm turnin' to stone

'cos you ain't comin' home

Why you ain't comin' home

If I'm turnin' to stone?‎

You've been gone for so long

And I can't carry on

Yes, I'm turnin', I'm turnin'‎

I'm turnin' 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

Chorus

I turn to stone when you are gone

I turn to stone

Turn to stone when you comin' home

I can't go on

I turn to stone when you are gone

I turn to stone

Turn to stone when you comin' home

I can't go on
