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,
But no one can feel like you.
In the summertime city,
Ain't it a pity
There's so much to tie you down
You're leaving tonight
For somewhere you can't be found.

While down to the end of town,
There's a pool hall where they all hang around,
You can hear them talking 'bout girls they knew
Talking 'bout what they're gonna do
Then you ask yourself
Is this where you belong,
Ist 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 searching for something new
Nothing is real
And no one can feel like you.
They say eagles fly
In this red hot sky
But were they just passin' through?
Or did they look down
And see what you've found is true?

But still in the back of your mind
You've got something to believe in
But there's so much to find
Is it 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
What you see you won't forget

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?
Here it is the life you've been waiting for
Why, oh why?
Stading in front of you like an open door.

Then you ask yourself
Is it 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 want to do
You do what you feel
No one can feel like you.
