Slow Burning Love |
| It was a hot and sultry day somewhere in early September |
| I don’t hardly remember the day |
| Just the way the sun beat down upon the bay, baby |
| I did not even need to know your name |
| It was, oh, so plain to see that you had eyes for me |
| Halfway open, halfway closed, half-naked eyes for me, baby |
| It was a slow burning love, a fair-weather love affair |
| A slow burning, smoldering love for you and I |
| And like the sun on the edge of the Western sky, it died |
| Oh, the lights of the city were close at hand |
| I might just as well have been another man |
| You might just as well have been another girl |
| It might just as well have been another world |
| It was a slow burning love, a fair-weather love affair |
| A slow burning, smoldering love for you and I |
| And like the sun on the edge of the Western sky, it died |
| Oh, slow burning love |
| You were smoking up that day, some kind of hot |
| It was a slow burning love, a fair-weather love affair |
| A slow burning, smoldering love for you and I |
| And like the sun on the edge of the Western sky, it died |
