Em
You stitch me up good, and you cut me down
C                               B        G  F#
So I string you up to keep you hanging around
You dish the hot stuff up but you keep me waiting
So I'll play it dirty until your body is breaking

Chorus:
B
We've got to make love, the time is right
A                         E
We've got to make love tonight
B                     E
Because we're burning up

You make me greedy, you won't feed me my food
But I'll make out easy because I see straight through you
You cool me off and hot me up and that's not right
Because you'll get hungry in the heat of the night

Chorus:
And then we'll make love, just when it's right
And when we make love tonight
We'll be burning up

Em
I know you feel the same
C
I know you feel the flame
D                       Em
Staring deep inside of you
            C                 D
Burning you up, breaking you down
Breaking you out in a cold sweat
Em                   C                 D
And as you lose control, of your very soul
Your desire takes over
Em                     C
You'll feel the heat sway
                    D
You're round to my way
                                             B
And suddenly you'll know that you're burning up

You stitch me up good, and you cut me down
So I string you up to keep you hanging around
You dish the hot stuff up but you keep me waiting
So I'll play it dirty until your body is breaking

Chorus:
We've got to make love, the time is right
We've got to make love tonight
Because we're burning up
We're burning up
