Lord Almighty, I feel my temperature rising
Higher and higher, it's burning through to my soul
Girl, girl, girl, girl, you gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming, I don't know which way to go.
(Chorus:)
[*'cause] Your kisses lift me higher,
like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky with burning love.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming, I must be a hundred and nine**
Burning, burning, burning, and nothing can cool me, yeah
I just might turn into smoke, but I feel fine.
Chorus*
Instrumental
It's coming closer, the flames are now licking my body
Won't you help me? I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breath, and my chest is a-heaving
Lord have mercy, I'm burning a hole where I lay.
Chorus
With burning love
|: I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love :|
