[Verse 1]

Whenever I'm with you

Something inside (Something inside)

Starts burning (Ooh)

And my heart is filled with fire

[Pre-Chorus]

Stop this, it's got a hold on me

I said, this ain't the way it's supposed to be

[Chorus]

It's got a heatwave burning in my heart (Heatwave)

I can't keep from crying (Heatwave), tearing me apart (Heatwave)

[Verse 2]

Whenever she calls my name (Ooh)

It sounds so soft, sweet, and plain

Right there, right then

I feel this burning pain

[Pre-Chorus]

This high blood pressure's got a hold on me

I said, this ain't the way love's supposed to be

[Chorus]

It's got a heatwave burning in my heart (Heatwave)

I can't keep from crying (Heatwave), tearing me apart (Heatwave)

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

Oh-yeah (Oh-yeah), oh-yeah

Oh, yeah

Oh-yeah (Oh-yeah), oh-yeah

Ooh

[Pre-Chorus]

This high blood pressure's got a hold on me

I said, this ain't the way love's supposed to be

[Chorus]

It's got a heatwave burning in my heart (Heatwave)

I can't keep from crying (Heatwave), tearing me apart (Heatwave)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Whenever I'm with you

Something inside (Something inside)

Starts burning (Ooh)

And my heart is filled with fire

[Pre-Chorus]

Something's got me amazed

Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze

[Chorus]

It's got a heatwave burning in my heart (Heatwave)

I can't keep from crying (Heatwave), tearing me apart (Heatwave)

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

Oh-yeah (Oh-yeah), oh-yeah

Oh, yeah

Oh-yeah (Oh-yeah), oh-yeah

Ooh

[Outro]

This high blood pressure's got a hold on me

I said, this ain't the way love's supposed to be

It's got a heatwave
