Jerry Burnham Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My temperature is rising
Even though the sun has set
You may think this surprising
Well you ain’t seen nothing yet
My eyes are getting blurry
And my brow begins to sweat
Your face is like a desert mirage
That I just can’t forget
(Chorus)
I’m not foolish or crazy or feeling blue
I’m hot, humid and hazy over you
(Verse II)
In Summertime when streets are hot
My mind plays tricks on me
I see you on the corner
Where you’re no supposed to be
Your eyes are like some lighthouse
That shines out on the sea
I hear your voice out in the night
You’re always tempting me
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
In the autumn chill
You think that my love will
Surrender to December
But I’ll be burning still
