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
