higher and higher, it's burning through to my soul
D                 G            A         D
Girl, girl, girl, you're gonna set me on fire

My brain is flamin', I don't know which way to go, yeah

Your kisses lift me higher

Burnin', burnin', burnin', and nothing can cool me

I just might turn into smoke, but I feel fine
