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 (you give me fever) when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever) Fever ... in the mornin' Fever all through the night
Sun lights up the day time Moon lights up the night I light up when you call my name 'cause I know you're gonna treat me right You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever) Fever ... in the mornin' Fever all through the night (WOW!!)
Everybody's got the fever That is somethin' you all know Fever isn't such a new thing Fever started long time ago
(You give me fever) Baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah) Let it shine on me (yeah, yeah) Well, baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah) And let it shine on me (yeah, yeah) Well, just a little bit higher (yeah, yeah) And just a little bit brighter, baby (yeah, yeah)
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) You give me fever.
