Lyrics In the Heat of the Night - Jeff Lorber

In the heat of the night,
We used to hold each other tight,
Do you remember?

Seems like only yesterday,
Girl when you went away,
I will remember.
You said you'd never leave me,
But did you deceive me?
Girl I miss you more every night.
You said you'd always need me,
Always tried to please me,
I'm even eager just wasn't right.

In the heat of the night,
I can still remember,
In the heat of the night

Every time I see you,
Walking down the street,
I've started thinking.
Thinking of the times,
The times when you remind
I'm just so lonely.
Girl you've got me going,
Out of my mind,
I think it's just a matter of time.
I need to have you with me,
Every day and night,
I'm even eager just wasn't right.

In the heat of the night,
Why'd you do this to me?
In the heat of the night,
I can still remember,
In the heat of the night,
Why'd you do this to me?
In the heat of the night,
Oh how I remember,
In the heat, of the night.

You said you'd never leave me,
But did you deceive me?
Girl I miss you more every night.
You said you'd always need me,
Always tried to please me,
I'm even eager just wasn't right.
In the heat of the night,
In the heat of the night,
In the heat of the night,
In the heat of the night.

In the heat of the night,
I can still remember,
In the heat of the night,
I just can't believe it.
In the heat of the night.
Why'd you want to do this to me girl?
In the heat of the night.
Oh how I remember
In the heat of the night.

(Repeat until fading)
