Love Is Like a Heat Wave - The Supremes

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

Whenever I'm with him

Something inside starts to burnin'

And I'm filled with desire

Could it be a devil in me

Or is this the way love's supposed to be?

It's like a heat wave

Burnin' in my heart

I can't keep from cryin'

It's tearin' me apart

Whenever he calls my name

Soft, low, sweet and plain

I feel, right there

I feel that burnin' flame

Has high blood pressure got a hold on me

Or is this the way love's supposed to be?

It's like a heat wave

Burnin' in my heart

I can't keep from cryin'

It's tearin' me apart

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

Now this funny feelin' has me amazed

I don't know what to do

My head's in a haze

It's like a heat wave

I feel it

Burnin', right here in my heart

It's like a heat wave
