My Burnin' Heart
2Pac Lyrics

I lay awake tonight because I wanna be with you
I cannot sleep because I am longing to be with you.

If you were beside me I'd playfully kiss you
I would show my affection for you if you were here with me.

Each time I see ya, the feeling gets stronger
My attraction to you grows stronger every time I see you.

You sit a bit closer, we stare a lot longer
We are physically close and we are locked in a long gaze.

Reach for my drink and for a second we touch
Our hands briefly touch as I reach for my drink.

Words are muttered I stutter 'cause I want you that much
I stumble over my words because I have strong feelings for you.

The situation is a no win 'cause he's my best friend
I am caught in a difficult situation because you are my best friend's girlfriend.

But now I'm guilty, I'm fallin' for his girlfriend
I feel guilty because I am developing feelings for my best friend's girlfriend.

I know it's wrong but my heart is filled with purity
I know it's wrong, but I cannot help the pure feelings that I have for you.

I offer passion but he offers security
I can offer you passion, but he can offer you security.

It's like a trap that I'm sinking into
I feel like I am falling into a trap.

I wake up sweaty when I'm sleepin' 'cause I'm thinking of you
You are constantly on my mind, even when I am asleep.

Then we make eye contact and I can't hold back
When we make eye contact, I cannot contain my emotions.

I try to shake it but the feeling comes right back
I try to resist my feelings, but they keep coming back.

What have I gotten into, I feel possesed by you
I feel like I am under your spell and cannot resist you.

I have these thoughts at night of undressing you
I have sexual thoughts about you at night.

It's kinda obvious blind men might see it
Our feelings for each other are obvious to everybody, even blind people.

But he doesn't so he keeps on trusting me
My best friend is unaware of our feelings and trusts me completely.

Leaves me alone with you while he's on vacation
My best friend leaves me alone with you while he is away on vacation.

Well how could he leave me with this temptation
It is difficult for me to resist the temptation of being alone with you.

Now I'm confused 'cause I'm no Casanova
I am confused because I do not consider myself a ladies' man.

But you keep callin' you sayin' to comeover
Despite my confusion, you keep calling me and asking me to come over.

Girl, you are my one and only
You are the only one for me, girl.

You are my angel and now you wanna leave me lonely
You are like an angel to me, but now you want to leave me alone.

What did I do? Baby, did I treat you bad?
I am confused about why you are leaving me and wondering if I did something wrong.

My heart is broken and now you make me sad
You have broken my heart and now I am sad.

I remember, when this love affair first started
I remember when our relationship began.

We was so in love and now we are departed
We were deeply in love, but now we are no longer together.

Girl, I buy you anything your heart desires
I want to give you everything you want, girl.

I have to let you know, baby, you're my fire
You are my passion, baby.

Warm and wet each kiss is prolonged
Our kisses are warm and passionate, and they last a long time.

This sweet caress that makes Rock T strong
Your tender touch makes me feel strong and powerful.

Just being with you and seeing the two of us
I love being with you and seeing us together.

Walking along the beach 'cause, girl, you are my peach
We walk along the beach together because you are my sweet and lovely peach.

So sweet and tender my love I surrender
Your sweetness and tenderness make me surrender to you in love.

No need to pretend that you want it to end
There is no need to pretend that you want our relationship to end.

I'll never let you go you're forever my girl
I will never let you go because you are forever my girl.

I could forget about you, pretend that we never met
I could try to forget about you and pretend that we never met.

But when I'm here without you, I start to heavily sweat
When I am away from you, I get anxious and start to sweat profusely.

You give me looks that reenforce upon the sores that's already there
Your looks and actions make my internal struggle even more painful.

So many times my mind was locked up and we passionately stare
We have had many intense moments together where we just stare and get lost in each other.

Play the role like you don't matter, he swears that we hate each other
We pretend that we do not matter to each other, and my best friend thinks we hate each other.

But in reality we can't wait to taste each other
In reality, we are both eager to be intimate with each other.

You're my addiction 'cause I fiend for you desperatley
Your love is my addiction, and I crave you desperately.

I stand here fantasicing because you're next to me
I stand here fantasizing because you are standing next to me.

What can I do with this passion I feel
I do not know what to do with the intense passion that I feel for you.

It's too hard to conceal so I know it's for real
It is impossible to hide my true feelings, so I know they are real.

Watched you so many times, I know where every curve is
I have watched you so many times that I know every curve of your body.

I think you reads my mind and so I'm feelin' nervous
I think that you can read my thoughts, and that makes me feel nervous.

I wanna tell you how I feel but that wouldn't help
I want to tell you how I feel, but it would not make the situation any better.

It would only cause problems so I keep to myself
Sharing my feelings with you would only make things worse, so I keep them to myself.

Even though it drives me crazy to see you sitting with him
It drives me crazy to see you with my best friend.

A tear rolls down my cheak because I see you kiss him
I cry when I see you kiss my best friend.

I know the words you're saying before they can be said
I know what you are going to say before you say it.

Hear the thoughts you be thinkin' before they come in your head
I can even hear your thoughts before you think them.

Wouldn't hurt the brotha for anything in this world
I would never hurt my best friend for anything in this world.

But damn I fell in love with his girl
Unfortunately, I have fallen in love with my best friend's girlfriend.

My heart is burnin' you know it's yearin' for your sweet caress
My heart is aching for your sweet caress.

I lay in ecstacy as you kiss and rub my chest
I am filled with ecstasy when you kiss and touch my chest.

You know you love me why must you deny yourself
You know that you love me, so why are you denying yourself?

What I can offer you yet you want somebody else
I can offer you everything you want, but you still want someone else.

It's not that well then girl what could it be
If it is not about what I can offer you, then what could it be?

I hope I'm good for you 'cause baby, you're so good for me
I hope that I am good enough for you because you are so good for me.

Many nights I cried and tried to make this work
I have cried many nights and tried to make our relationship work.

Then acted fool and cool and cruel like a church
I have acted foolish, cool, and cruel, like a hypocritical church.

Well I'm sorry baby, I have to let you know
I am sorry, but I need to tell you something.

You are my life my strength I refuse to let you go
You are my life and my strength, and I will not let you go.

You are so beautiful, baby, you light up my life
You are so beautiful, and you bring light and joy to my life.

I close my eyes and dream that you'll become my wife
I dream of you becoming my wife when I close my eyes.

Day in and day out it's you I pray about
Every day, I pray to be with you.

Don't lock the door to your heart and make me stay out
Do not close your heart to me and keep me away.

I love you 'cause honey, you're like a work of art
I love you because you are like a beautiful work of art.

You got me on fire
You have set my passion on fire for you.
