Turn Out the Lamplight Lyrics by Heatwave

Too Hot to Handle

1977

Coming home is always joy to me
Ain't a place that I would rather be
I need to see the heaven in your eyes
'Cause you're the love that's always hard to find
Every dream that's ever crossed my mind
Only you can make a day end right
So turn out the lamplight
(Turn out the lamplight)
Sit by my side (ooh)
Love me tonight
Turn out the lamplight
(Turn out the lamplight)
Let's dream for a while (ooh)
Just you and I
And we'll let the world go spinning by
(Turn out the lamplight)
On a day when problems get me down
It's nice to think about the love wе've found
All I need is you and I'll get by
And though the yеars may make me old and gray
Darling, you still take my breath away
'Cause time can't change the warmth inside your smile
So turn out the lamplight
(Turn out the lamplight)
Sit by my side (ooh)
Love me tonight
Turn out the lamplight
(Turn out the lamplight)
Let's dream for a while (ooh)
Just you and I
And we'll let the world go spinning by
(Turn out the lamplight)
Comin' home, comin' home is always joy to me
(Turn out the lamplight)
Ain't a place on earth I'd rather be
Though the years may make me old and gray
(Turn out the lamplight)
Darling, you still take my breath away
Turn out the lamplight, sit by my side
(Turn out the lamplight)
Turn out the lamplight and dream for a while
Years makin' me old and gray
(Turn out the lamplight)
Darling, you still take my breath away
All the things that you do to me...
(Turn out the lamplight)
