Burning Up

Would you believe me

If I said I'd never lie

Though it ain't easy

I can tell you I have tried

But I gotta say that it comes those days

That I told something untrue

Would you forgive me

If I said I'd lied to you?

This is my fear

To tell you what I've done

As things come clear

I'm afraid that you'll be gone

But all I know is if you go

At least I've told what's true

Hope you'll forgive me

When I say I've lied to you, yeah

I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do

Yes, I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do

How will you kill me

For what I'm about to tell?

Please do it gently

'Cause you know I'm bound for hell

All I know is I've lost my soul

I'm burning inside

Hope you'll forgive me

Yes, I have lied

Oh yes, I've lied

I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do

Yes, I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do

Now you know that I've gone

And I've been untrue to you

And once it's told

Well you know there's nothing we can do

I regret that I let this get so out of hand

I pray, please stay, that you'll understand

I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do

Yes I'm burning up

I'm burning for you

When the truth has been spoken

There's nothing I can do, ah yeah

Yeah

I'm burning up, I'm burning up

I'm burning up, I'm burning up

I'm burning up (Oh, I'm burning up)

I'm burning up (Oh, yeah)

I'm burning up (Oh, yeah)

I'm burning up

I'm burning up, I'm burning up

I'm burning up
