Well, I need something to soothe this pain
To cool the lava you pump through my veins
‘Cause I’m burning, I’m burning up for you

And, I need something to quench this fire
Before it becomes a funeral pyre
‘Cause I’m burning, I’m burning up for you

You struck the sparks, you fanned the flames in me
And now my heart’s a blazing ruin
You say that you were only foolin’

Don’t walk away, don't do me wrong
Don’t leave me singing this torched song
‘Cause I’m burnin’, I’m burnin’ up for you

Your love’s a drug, I’ve just got to drop
It hurts me so much but It makes me so hot
I’m burnin’, I’m burnin’ up for you

You struck the sparks, you fanned the flames in me
And now my heart’s a blazing ruin
You say that you were only foolin’

Don’t walk away, don't do me wrong
Don’t leave me singing this torched song
‘Cause I’m burnin’, I’m burnin’ up for you
Yeah I’m burnin’, I’m burnin’ up for you
