You never know how much I love ya

Never know how much I care

When you put your arms around me

I get a feelin' that's so hard to bear

You give me fever



When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever (fever, burn through) in the mornin'

An' fever all through the night



Listen to me, baby

Hear ev'ry word I say

No one could love you the way I do

'Cause they don't know how to love you my way

You give me fever



When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever (fever, burn through) in the mornin'

An' fever all through the night



Bless my soul, I love you

Take this heart away

Take these arms I'll never use

An' just believe in what my lips have to say

You give me fever



When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever (fever, burn through) in the mornin'

Fever all through the night



Sun lights up the daytime

Moon lights up the night

My eyes light up when you call my name

'Cause I know you're gonna treat me right

You give me fever



When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever (fever, burn through) in the mornin'

An' fever all through the night



Umm-mmm-mmm-mm-mmm-mm

Umm-umm-umm-um-um

Umm-mmm-mmm-mm-mmm-mm

Umm-umm-umm-um-um.
