Lord Almighty, I feel my temperature rising Higher higher It's burning through to my soul
I am feeling an intense, passionate feeling that is slowly taking over my entire being, and it's something that is so strong and powerful that it's starting to become a part of me

Girl, girl, girl You gonna set me on fire My brain is flaming I don't know which way to go
You have such an incredible effect on me that I feel like I am being set ablaze just by being in your presence, and I feel so consumed by this feeling that I don't know what to do with myself

Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love
The experience of being with you is so overwhelmingly positive that it feels like I am being lifted up and carried away on the wings of an angel, and everything around me seems to glow with a warm, radiant light

Ooh, ooh, ooh, I feel my temperature rising Help me, I'm flaming I must be a hundred and nine Burning, burning, burning And nothing can cool me I just might turn into smoke But I feel fine
This feeling of intense passion is reaching a fever pitch, and I feel like I am burning up from the inside out. Nothing seems to be able to calm me down, but despite all of this, I still feel a sense of contentment and satisfaction

'Cause your kisses lift me higher Like a sweet song of a choir And you light my morning sky With burning love
It's clear to me that the source of all this incredible feelings is you, and that just being near you, let alone sharing an intimate moment with you, is enough to make me feel like I am on top of the world

It's coming closer The flames are reaching my body Please won't you help me I feel like I'm slipping away It's hard to breath And my chest is a-heaving
The intensity of these feelings is becoming almost too much to bear, and I feel like I am in danger of being consumed by them. I need your help to keep me grounded and prevent me from losing touch with reality

Lord have mercy, I'm burning a hole where I lay 'Cause your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love
I am so overwhelmed by everything that is happening to me that it feels like I am about to spontaneously combust. But even though it's a little scary, I know that everything that is happening to me is a result of being with you, and I wouldn't trade it for the world

Ah, ah, burning love I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
In the end, all of these intense feelings boil down to just one thing - an overwhelming, burning love for you that makes me feel like I am the luckiest, happiest person in the world
