[Verse 1]
You lie in gentle sleep beside me
I hear your warm and rhythmic breathing
I take your hand and hold it tightly
Listen, can you not hear our young heart's beating

[Verse 2]
I kiss the sleep from your eyes
Your smile is sweeter than the morning
And here it comes, can't you feel it, baby
Can't you feel it, here it comes
Feel it, feel it, fire, fire
Something's burning, something's burning
Something's burning, and I think it's love

[Verse 3]
And now the sun is burning brightly
We lie in love so close together
And I get the feeling deep inside me
My love for you will burn forever

[Verse 4]
I cup my hands to touch your face
Once again I feel your fire
And here it comes, can't you feel it, baby
Can't you feel it, here it comes
Feel it, feel it, fire, fire
Something's burning, something's burning
Something's burning, and I think it's love

[Outro]
I think it's love, I think it's love
I think it's love, I think it's love
Can't you feel, the fire keeps burning
Can't you feel, the fire keeps burning
Can't you feel, the fire keeps burning love

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
