[Verse 1]
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 when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
[Verse 2]
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm going to treat you right
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
[Bridge]
Everybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
[Verse 3]
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet, she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, "Juliet Baby, you're my flame"
Thou giveth fever
When we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever, I'm on fire
Fever, yeah I burn, forsooth
[Verse 4]
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?"
[Verse 5]
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade
They give you fever when you kiss them
Fever, if you live and learn
Fever till it sizzles
What a lovely way to burn
[Outro]
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
