Zachary Richard - Burning Lyrics

Set out from Saint Joe on no ordinary journey
Headed down to New Orleans
Working in the skin game
But when I saw you, down by the muddy river
I had to have you, so I became your prisoner

It's been and long time and
Things have gotten crazy
I never thought that it could
Turn out this way i've got the notion
I'd swim the ocean for your love
It's not devotion
It's just this burning in my heart

I'm burning, burning, burning with desire
Burning, captive of your fire
It won't be easy telling all
The folks at home
They won't believe me and they
Won't like it at all
I never thought that I could
Turn my back on them it's just this burning
It's just this burning from within
