(Love Is Like A) Heatwave

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.
