Starts to burning and I'm filled with desire
Could it be the devil in me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be

CHORUS:
It's 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

CHORUS
LEAD BREAK - Ooh


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

CHORUS

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah - woh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah - woh
Don't pass up this chance, this time it's a true romance
Heatwave, heatwave, heatwave, heatwave
