Can't you feel the heat
I am a furnace
Come burn in me
You are you are you are
The thing that makes me hotter
I need I need your love
To make me warmer
I'm burnin'
Just like the sun reveals the sky
Just like the torch become your guide
I'm a fire I'm a fire
And I'm burnin' so bright
Just like moon heats up the night
Just like star bursts into sight
I'm a fire I'm a fire
And I'm burnin' so bright

Burnin' so bright
You gave me everything I am
Came into my heart and tour it around

Honestly I am so taken

You're like water on my chocolate

Take your time
Let me feel it
Oo baby, oo baby

Oo baby, oo baby aye aye
Ohh eee aye aye
Ohh ee aye aye aye

Donna never produced an album that flopped, not even her last one at the end of her career. Truth be told she still had plenty of Music left in her to put out had she not left us so soon. There will never be another 💐💐💐
