Lyrics
Lord Almighty
I feel my temperature rising
Higher higher
It’s burning through to my soulGirl, girl, girl
You gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
I don’t know which way to goYour kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning loveOoh, 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 to smoke
But I feel fineCause your kisses lift me higher
Like a sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning loveIt’s coming closer
The flames are now lickin’ 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-heavingLord Almighty
I’m burning a hole where I layCause your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning loveWith burning love
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
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
