Like a flower, waiting to bloom
Like a lightbulb, in a dark room
I'm just sittin' here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on

Like the desert waiting for the rain
Like a school kid waiting for the spring
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on

My poor heart, its been so dark
Since you've been gone
After all your the one who turns me off
But you're the only one who can turn me back on

My Hi-fi is waiting for a new tune
My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on, turn me on

    General Comment:This song hits really close to home right now. Its not as sexual as the name makes it sound. At least to me it sounds like after a heartbreak, that depressive empty state you feel after you've been left. Your heart is still longing for that person and you don't feel like yourself because you are missing your other half. So, she is waiting for him to "come on home and turn [her] on". She needs that other person in order to be herself again. Which isn't necessarily true, but it is how you feel when you are in that state.

    General Comment:This is one of my favorites on her new album.. Only thing i don't like about it are the lines: "After all your the one who turns me off You're the only one who can turn me back on".. Seems kinda cheesy to me.

    But besides that. 'Tis great. :)
