Lord Almighty I feel my temperature rising Higher, higher It's burning through to my soul Girl, girl, girl, girl You gonna set me on fire My brain is flaming I don't know which way to go Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love Ooh, ooh, ooh I feel my temperature rising Help me, I'm flaming I must be a hundred and nine Burning, burning, burning And nothing can cool me I just might turn into smoke But I feel fine 'Cause your kisses lift me higher Like a sweet song of a choir And you light my morning sky With burning love It's coming closer The flames are now licking my body Won't you help me? I feel like I'm slipping away It's hard to breathe My chest is a-heaving Lord, have mercy I'm burning a hole where I lay Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love With burning love I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love A hunk, a hunk of burning love A hunk, a hunk of burning love A hunk, a hunk of burning love Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

“Burning Love” foi escrita por Dennis Linde e lançada originalmente em abril de 1972 pelo cantor Arthur Alexander, no álbum *Arthur Alexander*.
O mesmo ano, Elvis Presley gravou a versão que ficou em formato de single, lançando-a apenas quatro meses depois da versão de Arthur Alexander.
Em 1973, Dennis Linde gravou e lançou sua própria versão da canção, disponibilizando a composição em duas interpretações diferentes.
A música permanece conhecida por ser um dos poucos sucessos que tiveram versões simultâneas de dois artistas distintos no mesmo ano, demonstrando a rapidez com que a música popular brasileira era reinterpreta‑da.
