Fever
Bruce Springsteen Lyrics

When I get home from my job
Upon my return from my work,

I turn on my t.v.
I switch on the television set,

But I can't keep my mind on the show
But I am unable to concentrate on the program,

When I lay down at night
When it is time to go to bed,

I don't get no sleep
I fail to get any sleep,

So I turn on the radio
Thus, I turn on the radio set,

But, lord, the only thing I hear
However, the only thing I hear by God's mercy,

Is you whisperin' in my ear
Is your whispering in my ear,

The words that you used to say
The words you used to say to me,

Well, now the days grow longer
Now, with each day that passes,

My love grows stronger
My love for you grows more profound,

And the fever gets worse every day
And my passion for you intensifies each day.

I got a fever for a girl
I crave for you intensely like a fever,

He's got the fever
I possess a burning desire for you,

Oh, he's got the fever
Oh, I can't seem to calm this fervent feeling,

Nothing that a boy can do
It is beyond my power to control,

When he's got the fever for a girl
When he craves for you like this,

He's got the fever
I possess a burning desire for you,

Oh, he's got the fever
Oh, I can't seem to calm this fervent feeling,

Left this little boy blue
It leaves me feeling powerless like a helpless child.

I can remember comin' home
I can still recollect coming home to you,

See you standin' at the stove
And seeing you standing by the stove,

With the dishes on the table
With the dishes served on the table,

Dinner ready to go
And dinner ready to be eaten,

Or maybe out to a movie show
Or sometimes catching a movie show,

Something that you'd like to see
Something that you would enjoy watching,

Oh, you were my sun in the morning
You were like sunshine in the morning,

And my moon at night
And my moon at night,

When you put your arms around me
When you embrace me in your arms,

Made me fell alright
I feel alright,

Well, now the days grow longer
Now, with each day that passes,

And my love just grows stronger
My love for you becomes more profound,

And the fever gets so bad at night
And my passion for you intensifies at night.

It's gonna be alright, now
Everything's going to be alright now,

If I can make it to the morning
Provided I can live through the night,

I'm gonna be alright, now
I will be alright now,

If I can just make it to the morning
If I can make it through till morning,

It's just this long and lonely nights
These long, lonely and sleepless nights,

Every time I close my eyes
Every time I shut my eyes,

All I see is her face
All I can see is your face,

Every time I shut my eyes
Every time I close my eyes,

All I see is her face
All I can see is your face,

But I'm gonna be alright, now
But I will be alright now,

I'll be alright, now
Everything will be fine,

When I shut down all the lights
When I switch off all the lights,

When I turn off all the lights
When I switch off all the lights,

When I turn down all the lights
When I dim all the lights,

And when I lay my head on the pillow
And when I put my head down on the pillow,

I can't stop myself in thinking
I cannot stop myself from thinking,

"Baby, where are you tonight? "
"Where are you tonight, my darling?"

"Where is she tonight? "
"Where are you tonight, my darling?"
