|
Once in a lifetime, something happens |
|
No one understands |
|
Turns the whole world inside out |
|
Turns water into blazing sand |
|
Who in the world who ever guess |
|
That something wasn't right? |
|
Who can explain when the sun comes up |
|
In the middle of a winter night? |
|
I'm burnin' up now, baby |
|
I'm burnin' up now, baby, baby, please |
|
Who would've guessed that |
|
When I first set eyes upon your face |
|
History would be rearranged and |
|
Nothing would ever be the same |
|
Who would believe that in my heart |
|
Is a piece of burning coal |
|
Slowly turning from a fire to a |
|
Raging blaze without control |
|
I'm burning' up now, baby |
|
I'm burning' up now, baby |
|
I've seen so much, it scares me |
|
I can't cool off 'cause something isn't right |
|
What do you think would happen |
|
If I sat outside your door |
|
Howled like a dog and played guitar |
|
And begged you, baby, baby, please |
|
How do you think your folks would feel |
|
If I broke into your house |
|
Snuck in your room while you were asleep |
|
And prayed to you down on my knees |
|
I'm burning' up now, baby |
|
I'm burning' up now, baby |
|
I've seen so much, it scares me |
|
I can't cool off 'cause something isn't right |
|
Who in the world would ever guess |
|
That somewhere in the middle of our cozy nest |
|
There were dark things lurking in the back of your mind |
|
Just open the window and look with your eyes |
|
Where in the Good Book does it say |
|
That destiny cannot be changed |
|
Who in the world would ever know |
|
If you walked out the door and never came home |
|
That something is not right |
