Burnin' Up

from Better Half by Sam Lee

/

lyrics

It's something seen on the silver screen, but it was just a myth to me
a fairy tale of a girl and a guy, and everything that comes in between

We stayed up and talked all night, both too scared to act just right
I'm convinced it's something and I'm a fool

So get up the courage to say that line, promise me baby we'll be just fine
Hollywood never wrote no script so good
We're burnin' up like wood

And I find, we both love wasting time
but the time that we wasted made me worse for the wear because you wore me out and blew my mind

You took my hand and we danced through the night, stepped so wrong and it felt just right
If you're looking for love when you've found it then you're a fool

So get up the courage to say that line, promise me baby we'll be just fine
Hollywood never wrote no script so good
And you've got the power to save my life, and I've got the words to change your mind
We don't say it, it just goes understood
We're burnin' up like wood

We stayed up and talked all night, both too scared to act just right
I'm convinced it's love and I'm a fool

So get up the courage to say that line, promise me baby we'll be just fine
Hollywood never wrote no script so good
And you've got the power to save my life, and I've got the words to change your mind
We don't say it, it just goes understood
We're burnin' up like wood

Sam Lee Denver, Colorado

"With his soulful, powerful, made-for-radio voice in the driver seat, Sam Lee's music is a sonic melting pot of hook centered pop, anthemic heartland rock and bluesy soul. A true crossover artist both on record and on stage, he is both intimately engaging and enthrallingly dramatic." ... more
