|
Whenever I'm with him
|
Something inside starts to burnin'
|
And I'm filled with desire
|
Could it be a devil in me
|
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?
|
|
It's like a heat wave
|
Burnin' in my heart
|
I can't keep from cryin'
|
It's tearin' me apart
|
|
Whenever he calls my name
|
Soft, low, sweet and plain
|
I feel, right there
|
I feel that burnin' flame
|
Has high blood pressure got a hold on me
|
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?
|
|
It's like a heat wave
|
Burnin' in my heart
|
I can't keep from cryin'
|
It's tearin' me apart
|
|
Sometimes I stare in space
|
Tears all over my face
|
I can't explain it
|
Don't understand it
|
I ain't never felt like this before
|
Now this funny feelin' has me amazed
|
I don't know what to do
|
My head's in a haze
|
|
It's like a heat wave
|
|
I recorded the lyrics at the end of the thrid verse as
|
|
It's like a heat wave
|
|
Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!
|
(go ahead and cry girl)
|
Oh Yeah!
|
(go ahead girl)
|
Yeah yeah!
|
(well it's alright)
|
Yeah yeah!
|
(ain't nothing but love girl)
|
Yeah yeah!
|
(unintelligible)
|
(sounds like a new romance)
|
Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!
|
(Burning burning burning)
|
Right here in my heart
|
(Burning burning burning)
