Heat of the Night lyrics

I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream

Where one man's nightmare is another man's dream

Pull the covers up high, and pray for the morning light

'Cause you're living alone, in the heat of the night

Met a man with a message from the other side

Couldn't take the pressure, had to leave it behind

He said, it's up to you

You can run or you can fight (yeah, that's right)

Better leave it alone, in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night, they'll be coming around

There'll be looking for answers, they'll be chasing you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?)

(Don't look back, don't ever turn around)

Had to pay the piper to call the tune

Said he'd be back someday, said he'd be back real soon

Pull the shades down low, you'll know when the time is right

When you're lying alone, in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night, they'll be coming around

There'll be looking for answers, they'll be chasing you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?)

(Don't look back, don't ever turn around)

In the heat of the night, they'll be coming around

There'll be looking for answers, they'll be chasing you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?)

(Don't look back, don't ever turn around)

In the heat of the night, they'll be coming around

There'll be looking for answers, chasing you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?)

(Don't look back, don't ever turn around)

In the heat of the night

There'll be chasing you down

In the heat of the night

(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?)

(Don't look back, don't ever turn around)
