My Burnin' Heart
Tupac Shakur

I lay awake tonight because I wanna be with you

If you were beside me I'd playfully kiss you

Each time I see ya, the feeling gets stronger

You sit a bit closer, we stare a lot longer

Reach for my drink and for a second we touch

Words are muttered I stutter 'cause I want you that much

The situation is a no win 'cause he's my bestfriend

But now I'm guilty, I'm fallin' for his girlfriend

I know it's wrong but my heart is filled with purity

I offer passion but he offers security

It's like a trap that I'm sinking into

I wake up sweaty when I'm sleepin' 'cause I'm thinking of you

Then we make eye contact and I can't hold back

I try to shake it but the feeling comes right back

What have I gotten into, I feel possesed by you

I have these thoughts at night of undressing you

It's kinda obvious blind men might see it

But he doesn't so he keeps on trusting me

Leaves me alone with you while he's on vacation

Well how could he leave me with this temptation

Now I'm confused 'cause I'm no Casanova

But you keep callin' you sayin' to comeover

Now what do I do? Go or stay and play it smart

It's gettin' rougher 'cause I suffer from a burnin' heart

My burnin' heart

Girl, you are my one and only

You are my angel and now you wanna leave me lonely

What did I do? Baby, did I treat you bad?

My heart is broken and now you make me sad

I remember, when this love affair first started

We was so in love and now we are departed

Girl, I buy you anything your heart desires

I have to let you know, baby, you're my fire

Warm and wet each kiss is prolonged

This sweet caress that makes Rock T strong

Just being with you and seeing the two of us

Walking along the beach 'cause, girl, you are my peach

So sweet and tender my love I surrender

No need to pretend that you want it to end

I'll never let you go you're forever my girl

You know why? 'Cause girl, you are my world

My burnin' heart

Totally tongue tied every two seconds I keep watching you

He's my best friend but I can't help clockin' you

How could this be, how could we both love you?

Now I'm trapped in this position and don't know what to do

I could forget about you, pretend that we never met

But when I'm here without you, I start to heavily sweat

You give me looks that reenforce upon the sores that's already there

So many times my mind was locked up and we passionately stare

Play the role like you don't matter, he swears that we hate each other

But in reality we can't wait to taste each other

You're my addiction 'cause I fiend for you desperatley

I stand here fantasicing because you're next to me

What can I do with this passion I feel

It's too hard to conceal so I know it's for real

Watched you so many times, I know where every curve is

I think you reads my mind and so I'm feelin' nervous

I wanna tell you how I feel but that wouldn't help

It would only cause problems so I keep to myself

Even though it drives me crazy to see you sitting with him

A tear rolls down my cheak because I see you kiss him

I know the words you're saying before they can be said

Hear the thoughts you be thinkin' before they come in your head

Wouldn't hurt the brotha for anything in this world

But damn I fell in love with his girl

My burnin' heart, heart, heart

My heart is burnin' you know it's yearin' for your sweet caress

I lay in ecstacy as you kiss and rub my chest

You know you love me why must you deny yourself

What I can offer you yet you want somebody else

It's not that well then girl what could it be

I hope I'm good for you 'cause baby, you're so good for me

Many nights I cried and tried to make this work

Then acted fool and cool and cruel like a church

Well I'm sorry baby, I have to let you know

You are my life my strength I refuse to let you go

You are so beautiful, baby, you light up my life

I close my eyes and dream that you'll become my wife

Day in and day out it's you I pray about

Don't lock the door to your heart and make me stay out

I love you 'cause honey, you're like a work of art

You got me on fire

My burnin' heart

I lay awake tonight because I wanna be with you

If you were beside me I'd playfully kiss you

Each time I see ya the feeling gets stronger

You sit a bit closer we stare a lot longer

Reach for my drink and for a second we touch

Words are muttered I stutter 'cause I want you that much

The situation is a no win 'cause he's my best friend

But now I'm guilty I'm fallin' for his girlfriend

I know it's wrong but my heart is filled with purity

I offer passion but he offers security

It's like a trap that I'm sinking into

I wake up sweaty when I'm sleepin' 'cause I'm thinking of you

Then we make eye contact and I can't hold back

I try to shake it but the feeling comes right back

What have I gotten into, I feel possesed by you

Now I'm confused 'cause I'm no Casanova

But you keep callin', you sayin' to comeover

Now what do I do? Go or stay and play it smart

It's gettin' rougher 'cause I suffer from a burnin' heart

My burnin' heart

My burnin' heart

My burnin' heart

My burnin' heart
