(Love Is Like A) Heatwave Lyrics
Whenever I'm with him
Something inside
Starts to burnin'
And I'm filled with desire
Could it be the devil in me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Whenever he calls my name
So slow, sweet and plain
I feel, yeah, yeah,
Well I feel that burning flame
Has my blood pressure got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing 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
But that doesn't mean it has me amazed
I don't know what to do, my head's in a haze
Just like a heatwave
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Don't pass up this chance
This time it's a true romance
Heatwave
Something inside
Starts to burnin'
And I'm filled with desire
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
So slow, sweet and plain
I feel, yeah, yeah,
Well I feel that burning flame
Or is this the way love's supposed to be
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
Tears all over my face
I can't explain it, don't understand it
I ain't never felt like this before
I don't know what to do, my head's in a haze
Burning in my heart
Can't keep from cryin'
It's tearing me apart
This time it's a true romance
