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
better leave it 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
