In The Heat Of The Night Lyrics

In The Heat Of The Night lyrics

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 talking 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 nothing is real,
and no one can feel like you



They say that eagles fly in this red
hot sky

But were they just passing through

Or did they look down,
and see what you found was true



But still in the back of your
mind

You've got something 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 waiting 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
