If you need some loving arms
To enfold and keep you warm
Someone who can be
Friend and lover when you need

Take a chance on our love
It can bring you joy

I've got love for you, baby
Understanding's not a maybe
So much love for you, baby
And I'm ready to give

If you'll only turn around
Baby, turn around
If you'll only turn around
Baby, turn around

Darling, trust me
Have no fears
We'll share the laughter and the tears
Take my hand
Come walk with me
I'll take to straight to love's ecstasy

Take a chance on our love
It can bring you joy

I've got love for you, baby
Understanding's not a maybe
So much love for you, baby
And I'm ready to give

If you'll only turn around
Baby, turn around
If you'll only turn around, yeah
Baby, turn, turn around
(Baby, baby)

Love, turn around
Baby, turn around, mm-hmm
(Baby, baby)
Love is waiting
(Baby, turn around)
It's standing behind ya

Love is willing
(Baby, baby)
To stand beside ya
If you'll only turn around
(Baby, turn around)
Turn, turn around
(Baby, baby)

Searching
You're searching for love
Well, love is waiting
Yeah, love is waiting
If you'll only turn around
