(Love Is Like a) Heat Wave (album version) Lyrics
Whenever I'm with him, (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Something inside (Inside) starts to burning. (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
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
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Whenever he calls my name (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
Soft, low, sweet and plain. (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Right then, right there, (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
I feel that burning flame. (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Has a high blood pressure got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?
It's like a heat wave
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, heat wave
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, heat wave
Sometimes I stare in space, (Doo wah, doo wah)
Tears all over my face. (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
I can't explain it, don't understand it. (Doo wah, doo wah)
I ain't never felt like this before. (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
Now that funny feeling has me amazed.
Don't know what to do.
My head's in a haze.
It's like a heat wave
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh. (Well, it's alright, girl.)
Oh, oh, oh, yeah. (Go ahead, girl.)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (Yes, it's alright, girl.)
Oh, yeah. (Can't miss it, that's love, girl.)
I feel it burning (Don't pass up this chance.)
Right here in my heart. (It's time for a new romance.)
Don't you know it's like a heat wave.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (Burning, burning)
Oh. (Burning, burning, burning)
Yeah, don't you know its's like a heat wave burning (Burning, burning)
Right here in my heart. (Burning, burning, burning)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (Burning, burning)
Oh, yeah. (Burning, burning, burning)
Something inside (Inside) starts to burning. (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And I'm filled with desire.
Could it be a devil in me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Soft, low, sweet and plain. (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Right then, right there, (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
I feel that burning flame. (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Has a high blood pressure got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Ooh, heat wave
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, heat wave
Tears all over my face. (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
I can't explain it, don't understand it. (Doo wah, doo wah)
I ain't never felt like this before. (Doo wah, doo wah, doo)
Now that funny feeling has me amazed.
Don't know what to do.
My head's in a haze.
Burning in my heart. (It's like a heat wave.)
I can't keep from crying. (It's like a heat wave.)
It's tearing me apart.
Oh, oh, oh, yeah. (Go ahead, girl.)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (Yes, it's alright, girl.)
Oh, yeah. (Can't miss it, that's love, girl.)

Right here in my heart. (It's time for a new romance.)
Don't you know it's like a heat wave.
Oh. (Burning, burning, burning)
Yeah, don't you know its's like a heat wave burning (Burning, burning)
Right here in my heart. (Burning, burning, burning)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (Burning, burning)
Oh, yeah. (Burning, burning, burning)
