Burnin'

She was workin’ at the Candlelight lounge

and I was drinkin’ and lookin’ around

When she walked up and said can I help you please

I said honey I’ve been watchin’ you

for about an hour or two

and I just gotta tell you

what you’ve been doing to me

Oh you got me burnin’, burnin’ Honey I’m on fire

I’m yearnin’ yearnin’, yearnin’ with desire

Oh you’re turnin’ turnin’ , turnin my temperature up

You got me burnin’ burnin’, burnin’ with love

I said I don’t mean to come on strong

but you really do turn me on

She said I heard that line before and it don’t work

so I kept on ordering rounds

and she kept on turnin’ me down.

Oh every time she told me no, you know the flame got worse.

She had me burnin’ burnin’, oh she had me on fire

Yearnin’ yearnin’, yearnin’ with desire

She kept turnin’ turnin’, turnin’ my temperature up

She had me burnin’ burnin’, burnin’ with love

Well along about closing time

I said, honey your place or mine

She said I want you to know I’m not an easy catch

And then she smiled at me

and she handed me her key

And we left the Candlelight a perfect match

Oh now we’re burnin’ burnin

Whoa we’re on fire

We’re yearnin’ yearnin’, yearnin’ with desire

Oh we're turnin' turnin', turnin’ our temperatures up

Oh we’re burnin’ burnin’, burnin’ with love

Yeah we’re just burnin’ burnin’, burnin’ with love.
