Burning Love is geschreven door Dennis Linde en oorspronkelijk uitgebracht door de countrysoulartiest Arthur Alexander, die het ook op zijn album "Arthur Alexander" uit 1972 opnam. Het nummer werd al snel door andere artiesten ontdekt en het werd pas werkelijk beroemd door de versie van Elvis Presley. Burning Love werd voor Elvis Presley diens grootste hit in de Verenigde Staten na Suspicious Minds in 1969 en zijn laatste top 10-hit in de Amerikaanse Hot 100 (pop charts).

Songtekst
Lord Almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Higher and higher
It's burning through to my soul
Girl girl girl
Your gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
I don't know which way to go
Cause 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
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
You light my morning sky
With burning love
With burning love
it's coming closer
The flames they're licking my body
Won't you help me
I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breathe
And my chest is just a-heaving
Lord have Mercy
I'm burning a hole where I lay
Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
(With burning love)
Burning love
(Burning love)
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
