I used to work it out with my head in a cloud A record machine playing out loud I guess my fate had to turn I followed a star to a candle that burned Bag full of crackers and chocolate bars Breakin' my back, sleepin' in cars Ha! I always woke up in doubt Well, now I know what the fuss is about Way out, out of the blue I met a young girl It could've been you Hey, what was I supposed to do I didn't want to fall in love Try to keep sane and savin' the light Two things to do when you can't fight the night I always lay down in doubt Well, now I know what the fuss is about Way out, out of the blue I met a young girl It could've been you Hey, what was I supposed to do I didn't want to fall in love Sometimes you don't decide for yourself Sometimes you don't decide for yourself Sometimes you can't decide for yourself Way out, out of the blue Hey, what was I supposed to do Way out, out of the blue I met a young girl It could've been you Hey, what was I supposed to do I didn't want to fall in love Way out, out of the blue I met a young girl It could've been you Hey, what was I supposed to do I didn't want to fall in love I didn't want to fall in love

Whenever I'm with him Something inside starts to burning And I'm filled with desire Could it be the devil in me Or is this the way love's supposed to be? It's like a heat wave It's burning in my heart I can't keep from burning It's tearing me apart Whenever he calls my name so softly and plain Right then, right there, I feel that burning flame Has high blood pressure got a hold on me? Is this the way love's supposed to be? It's like a heat wave It's burning in my heart I can't keep from burning It's tearing me apart Sometimes I stare in space Tears all over my face I can't explain it, don't understand it I ain't never felt like this before Now this funny feeling has me amazed Don't know what to do, my head's in a haze It's like a heat wave Yeah yeah Yeah yeah Ha oh yeah Yeah yeah Yeah yeah Oh yeah I feel it burning right here in my heart Don't you know it's like a heat wave? Yeah yeah Yeah yeah Oh Don't you know it's like a heat wave Burning right here in my heart?
