Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Slow Burn lyrics

(B. Rush)

She looks at me

Sparks fly through my chest

She needs it now

No need to suggest

I get out the candle

She smolders and yearns

She lights the wick

And I slow burn

Slow burn...the flames are licking

They're starting to spread

Slow burn...she's started a fire in my bed

We dare not fight it

Until it's consumed

Her kiss ignited it

It's raging through the room

We start out standing

Burning up for more

And end up laying

Melted on the floor

Slow burn...the flames are licking

They're starting to spread

Slow burn...the girl is ablaze in my bed

Your kiss ignites it

Sends it raging through the house

Baby, baby, don't fight it

Till the last flicker of desire is put out

Slow burn...the flames are licking

They're starting to spread

Slow burn...the girl is sizzling up the bed

Slow burn...we start out standing

Burning up for more

Slow burn...and end up laying

Melted on the floor

Well it's a slow burn (slow burn)
