Lyrics Slow Burn - Southside Johnny, The Jukes

Slow Burn

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)
