Song Lyrics

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Whenever I'm with him (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Something inside (inside)
Starts to burn deep (ooh, ooh, ooh)
And I'm filled with desire
Could it be a devil in me
Or is this just the way love's supposed to be?

It's like a heatwave (heatwave)
Burning in my heart (heatwave)
I can't keep from crying (heatwave)
It's tearing me apart

Whenever he calls my name (he drives me wild)
Soft and low, sweet and plain (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Right there, right there (he drives me wild)
I feel that burning flame (yeah)
That's a high blood pressure got a hold on me
Or is this the way love's supposed to be?

It's like a heatwave (heatwave)
Burning in my heart (heatwave)
I can't keep from crying (heatwave)
It's tearing me apart

Yeah, you win
Whoa-whoa, you win
Whoa, whoa, whoa
It's like a heatwave

Sometimes I stare in space (he drives me wild)
Tears all over my face (oh, yeah-yeah-yeah)
I can't explain it, don't understand it
I ain't never felt like this before (yeah)
Now that funny feeling has me amazed
Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze

It's like a heatwave (heatwave)
Burning in my heart (heatwave)
I can't keep from crying (heatwave)
It's tearing me apart

Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, heatwave)

Now that funny feeling has me amazed
Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze

It's like a heatwave (heatwave)
Burning in my heart (heatwave)
I can't keep from crying (heatwave)
It's tearing me apart
