"Burning Love" is an Elvis Presley hit that is the closing song of Lilo & Stitch, written by Dennis Linde and performed by Wynonna Judd. It is also heard during the closing credits of The Game Plan, where Joe Kingman, Peyton Kelly, and Monique Vasquez are all performing it. Additionally, a cover version of this song by The Mike Eldred Trio is heard in the trailers of Planes: Fire & Rescue.

The song is also heard on the Disney California Adventure attraction, Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT!.

Lyrics[]

Lord Almighty
I feel my temperature risin'
Higher and higher
It's burnin' through to my soul

Baby, baby, baby
You gonna set me on fire
My brain is flamin'
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

Burnin', burnin', burnin'
And nothin' 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 breath
And my chest is a-heatin'

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
Ah, ah, burning love

I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
