Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Not even lucifer can deal with this heat
You got me burning from my head to my feet
My heart is like a fiery inferno
Temperature so high, can't cool down no no no

I want you more than ever before
I need your love baby that's for sure
Don't ever stop what you doing to me
I got that burning desire for you baby
Sady ignite me from your sight
Sady sparks flying left to right
Sady ignite me, Sady ignite me
Sady ignite me, setting desire all alight

Pistons releasing gallons of steam
The strain is close to bursting all of my seams
Your love has got my soul blazing with fire
Sweet Sady your love takes me higher and higher

I want you more than ever before
I need your love baby that's for sure
Don't ever stop what you doing to me
I got that burning desire for you baby
Sady ignite me from your sight
Sady sparks flying left to right
Sady ignite me, Sady ignite me
Sady ignite me, setting desire all alight

Baby I'm smoking like a hot fire place
Just keep on loving, keep the flush to my face
Blood pressuring rising to 100 over 90
Call up the doctor tell him I'm so excited

I want you more than ever before
I need your love baby that's for sure
Don't ever stop what you doing to me
I got that burning desire for you baby
Sady ignite me from your sight
Sady sparks flying left to right
Sady ignite me, Sady ignite me
Sady ignite me, setting desire all alight
Burning desire, burning desire
Burning desire, burning desire




Burning desire, burning desire
Burning desire, higher and higher
