Burning Up
M-Jay & Dan-Vee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was just getting used to being alone when I saw you
How could I have known?
That just one look could ignite this passion burning me inside…

Losing myself ‘cause I never felt this way for no one else
Except for you baby
Your heat drives me crazy
It’s burning me up
From the flame to the fire, pushing me higher, riding my desire
For you baby
Your heat drives me crazy
It’s burning me up

I can’t stop now, so I won’t even try to put out this blaze




That started with that spark in your eye
A thousand kisses won’t satisfy this hunger eating me alive
