In the heat of the night, when you know it ain't right But you do what you wanna do You do what you feel, no one can feel like you Out in the summertime city, ain't it a pity There's so much to tie you down You're leaving tonight to somewhere you can't be found While down at the edge of town At a pool hall where they all hang around You hear them talkin' about the girls they knew And talk about what they're gonna do Then you ask yourself, is this where you belong? Is it right, or is it wrong? Does it matter what's right, in the heat of the night? Out in the streets tonight, under the neon lights You're searchin' for something new But nothin' is real, and no one can feel like you They say that eagles fly in this red hot sky But were they just passin' through Or did they look down, and see what you found was true But still in the back of your mind You've got somethin' to believe in, but there's so much to find As the bright lights dim, and the night closes in You thought everything is ending, but it's yet to begin And you ain't seen nothing yet! But what you see you'll never forget, and you'll say Why oh why Did it take you so long to want something more? Why oh why Did you never get off on this before? Why oh why Well, here it is, the love you've been waitin' for Why oh why Standin' in front of you like an open door And then you ask yourself, is this where you belong? Is it right, or is it wrong? Does it matter what's right, in the heat of the night? In the heat of the night, when you know it ain't right But you do what you wanna do You do what you feel, 'cause no one can feel like you

In the heat of the night Seems like a cold sweat Creeping cross my brow, yeah In the heat of the night I'm a feelin' motherless somehow Stars with evil eyes stare from the sky All mean and bright (In the heat of the night) Ain't a woman here before Knows how to make the morning come It's so hard to keep control When I could sell my soul, oh, for just a little light (In the heat of the night) In the heat of the night I've got trouble wall to wall, oh yes I have An' I repeat, oh, I repeat in the night Must be an ending to us all Oh Lord, it won't be long Just you be strong And it'll be all right (In the heat of the night) In the heat of the night

In the still of the night As I gaze out of my window At the moon in its flight My thoughts all stray to you In the still of the night While the world is in slumber Oh, the times without number, baby When I say to you Do you love me as I love you? Are you my life to be, my dream come true? Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight Like the moon growing dim on the rim of the hill In the chill, still of the night? And do you love me just like I love you? Are you my life to be, my big dream come true? Or will this dream of mine fade way out of sight Just like the moon that keeps getting dim Way out on the rim of that-the hill In the chill, chill, chill, chill still of the night
