[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
