In the Heat of the Night lyrics

Something you know isn't right,

the reasons somehow are all wrong.

But you're caught in a moment

in the heat of the night

where compassion just doesn't belong.

Nowhere to hide,

you got no place to run

and no need to understand.

You can fight it for a moment,

fight for your rights,

but you fight like a man.

'Cause in the heat of the night,

in a moment of passion,

in the heat of the night, 

there's a chain reaction

in the heat of the night

when no one is ever to blame.

Someone is looking at you,

someone who wants you tonight.

You turn for awhile

to see that look in his eyes

that no one could ever deny

You try to resist,

you try to be strong,

but you know your control is all gone.

You can't understand,

you don't have a reason.

You can't let him go.

'Cause in the heat of the night,

in a moment of passion,

in the heat of the night, 

there's a strange attraction

in the heat of the night

when no one remembers your name.

In the heat of the night,

in a moment of passion,

in the heat of the night,

you can feel the action

in the heat of the night

when no one is ever to blame.

In the heat of the night,

in a moment of passion,

in the heat of the night,

there's a chain reaction

in the heat of the night

when no one remembers your name.
