Heat Of The Night(Album Version)

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 mornin' light
Cause you're livin' 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
(ya that's right)
Better leave it alone
in the heat of the night
In the heat of the night they'll be comin' around
They'll be lookin' for answers
they'll be chasin' you down
In the heat of the night
(Where you 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 lyin' alone in the heat of the night
