Slow Burning Love

It was a hot and sultry day

Somewhen in early september

I don't hardly remember the day

Just the way the sun beat down

Upon the bay, baby



I did not even need to know your name

It was, oh, so plain to see

That you had eyes for me

Halfway open, halfway closed

Half naked eyes for me, baby



It was a slow burning love

A fair-weather love affair

A slow burning, smouldering love

For you and i

And like the sun on the edge of the western sky

It died



Oh, the lights of the city were close at hand

I might just as well have been another man

You might just as well have been another girl

It might just as well have been another world



It was a slow burning love

A fair-weather love affair

A slow burning, smouldering love

For you and i

And like the sun on the edge of the western sky

It died



Slow burning love...
