Whenever I'm with him,
Somethin' inside (inside)
Starts to burning
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
Now, 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
(Ooooh, oooh heat wave) (2x)
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, that funny feelin' has me in a maze
Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze
It's like a heat wave
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah
Don't pass up this chance
It sounds like true romance
Don't you know it's like a heat wave?
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh (burnin' burnin' burnin')
Yeah, don't you know it's like a heat wave?
Burnin' burnin' burnin'
Burnin' burnin' burnin'
(repeat and fade out)
