(Quinton Claunch, Dave Hall & Ry Cooder) 



Brand new day, brave new man 

It's a miracle what love can do 

All the joys romance can bring 

Come smiling down on a heart that's true 

When love is real, you can't turn it around 

It's like a river running down to the sea 

This old world turns around for lovers like you 

It's not the way love turned out for me 



People in love build a house they can share 

Takes a long time to get it just right 

But a fire can start in the kitchen somewhere 

And burn that little house down over night 

That flame burning bright in your heart, I believed that 

You turned it on just for me 

Another man held that fire, burned our house to the ground 

That's the way love turned out for me 



People turn out for the big show 

Pretty flowers turn out in the spring 

And the light turns out in the kitchen 

When somebody pulls on the string 

But there's no light burning in my kitchen 

And no doors open up with my key 

And I ain't got no one to turn to 

That's the way love turned out for me
