 Turn on the world;  give them a taste of how free your love  can be
 Turn on the world,  you don't wanna waste all your warmth  on me
 You say you've got wings,  teach them to fly
 Teach them to love  and not question why
 Teach them to live  and then just watch them die
  *
 As you turn on the world
 Turn on the world,  I'm just one man and that ain't enough  for you
 Turn on the world,  you know you can girl, it won't be too tough  for you
 Reach for your star,  ride the highway
 Pick up the souls  that wait to be saved
 All you can give  me you already gave
  *
 Now go turn on the world
 But where my mind  goes now, is no longer your  concern
 You're hearing new voices  now
 And I'm just a bridge  to burn
 You've got so many choices  now
 You don't know where to turn,  turn, turn
  *
 Turn on the world
 Turn on the world,  live life to the hilt, march to your own  sweet tune
 Turn on the world,  don't stop for the guilt 'cause it might ruin your
afternoon
 You say I should smile,  stand and be strong
 'Cause we had our time,  and we sang our song
 Don't worry about me  babe just run along
  *
 And go turn on the world
 Oh show  them how real your love  can be
Turn  on the world
 You don't  wanna waste, don't  wanna waste
Don't  wanna waste an hour on me
 You say you've got wings,  teach them to fly
 Teach them to love  and not question why
 Teach them to live  and then just watch them die
  *
 As you turn on the world
