Whenever I'm with him something inside
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, heatwa
