In the heat of the night when you know it aint right
But you do what you want to do.
You do what you feel but no one can feel like you.
In the summertime city aint it a pity
Theres so much to tie you down
Youre leaving tonight for somewhere you cant be found
While down at the end of town
At a pool hall where they all hang around
You can hear them talking bout girls they know
Talking bout what theyre gonna do
Then you ask yourself: is this where you belong,
Is it right or is it wrong
And does it matter whats right
In the heat of the night.
in the streets tonight under the neon lights
Youre searching for something new.
Nothing is real but no one could feel like you.
They say 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
Youve got something to believe in
But theres so much to find
As the bright lights dim and the night closes in .
You thought everything has ended
But its yet to begin
And you aint see nothing yet
(but) what you see you wont forget
You say
Why oh why did it take you so long to want something more
Oh why did you never got off on this before
And here it is the life youve standing in front of you like an open door.
And you ask yourself: is this where you belong,
Is it right or is it wrong
And does it matter whats right
In the heat of the night.
In the heat of the night when you know it aint right
But you do what you want to do.
You do what you feel but no one can feel like you.
