Fever
|
|
Never know how much I love you
|
Never know how much I care
|
When you put your arms around me
|
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
|
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
|
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
|
Fever ... in the mornin'
|
Fever all through the night
|
|
Sun lights up the day time
|
Moon lights up the night
|
I light up when you call my name
|
'cause I know you're gonna treat me right
|
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
|
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
|
Fever ... in the mornin'
|
Fever all through the night (WOW!!)
|
|
<instrumental interlude>
|
|
Everybody's got the fever
|
That is somethin' you all know
|
Fever isn't such a new thing
|
Fever started long time ago
|
|
(You give me fever)
|
Baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah)
|
Let it shine on me (yeah, yeah)
|
Well, baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah)
|
And let it shine on me (yeah, yeah)
|
Well, just a little bit higher (yeah, yeah)
|
And just a little bit brighter, baby (yeah, yeah)
|
<OWWW!!!>
|
|
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
|
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
|
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
|
You give me fever.

Romeo loved Juliet
|
Juliet she felt the same
|
When he put his arms around her
|
He said, "Julie baby you're my flame"
|
Thou givest fever when we kisseth
|
Fever with thy flaming youth
|
Fever I'm on fire
|
Fever yea I burn forsooth
|
|
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
|
Had a very mad affair
|
When her daddy tried to kill him
|
She said "Daddy oh don't you dare"
|
"He gives me fever with his kisses"
|
"Fever when he holds me tight"
|
"Fever, I'm his missus"
|
"Daddy won't you treat him right?"
|
|
Now you've listened to my story
|
Here's the point that I have made
|
Cats were born to give chicks fever
|
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
|
We give you fever when we kiss you
|
Fever if you live and learn
|
Fever till you sizzle
|
What a lovely way to burn
|
What a lovely way to burn
|
What a lovely way to burn, ah
|
What a lovely way to burn
|
