Standing in the Shadows of Motown movie - (Love Is Like A) Heat Wave lyrics

rate me

Song by Joan Osborne<br /><br>

Whenever I'm with him <br>

Something inside <br>

Starts to burnin' <br>

And I'm filled with desire <br>

<br>

Could it be the devil in me <br>

Or is this the way love's supposed to be <br>

<br>

Just like a heatwave <br>

Burning in my heart <br>

Can't keep from cryin' <br>

It's tearing me apart <br>

<br>

Whenever he calls my name <br>

So slow, sweet and plain <br>

I feel, yeah, yeah, <br>

Well I feel that burning flame <br>

<br>

Has my blood pressure got a hold on me <br>

Or is this the way love's supposed to be <br>

<br>

Just like a heatwave <br>

Burning in my heart <br>

Can't keep from cryin' <br>

It's tearing me apart <br>

<br>

Sometimes I stare in space <br>

Tears all over my face <br>

I can't explain it, don't understand it <br>

I ain't never felt like this before <br>

<br>

But that doesn't mean it has me amazed <br>

I don't know what to do, my head's in a haze <br>

<br>

Just like a heatwave <br>

Burning in my heart <br>

Can't keep from cryin' <br>

It's tearing me apart <br>

<br>

Don't pass up this chance <br>

This time it's a true romance <br>

<br>

Heatwave<br>

<br>
