Maggie Reilly - In The Heat Of The Night lyrics

Blossoms fall like rain under a sleepless moon Amber fireflies dance across the shore Helping her to keep her hopes alive All those tiny sparks of flame But in the heat of the night her blood runs cold Can she survive? And in the heat of the night she longs to feel his touch Her mind is reeling and she can feel the earth revolving In the heat of the night she needs him oh so much Many miles away Under a starlit sky He's lying all alone Waiting for the dawn But in the heat of the night his blood runs cold Can he survive? And in the heat of the night he's burning for her touch How could he let it slip right thru his fingers When in the heat of the night he needs her oh so much Come to me now Please take my hand Look in my heart and you'll find someone forever true You know our love is alive Waiting for you It's shining a light on the path that leads me back to you But in the heat of the night her blood runs cold Can she survive? And in the heat of the night she's burning for his touch How could she let it slip right thru her fingers When in the heat of the night she needs him oh so much But in the heat of the night (how could he ever feel so lonely) His blood runs cold (he's dreaming all his life for this love to come along) Can he survive? And in the heat of the night (and now it's falling apart around him) He longs to feel her touch (how could he get it oh so wrong) His mind is reeling and he can feel the earth revolving When in the heat of the night he needs her oh so much
