Pat Benatar : In the Heat of the Night

Lyrics


1. Heartbreaker

Your love is like a tidal wave,
Spinnin' over my head
Drownin me in your promises
Better left unsaid

You're the right kinda of sinner
To release my inner fantasy
The invincible winner
And you know that you are born to be

You're a heartbreaker,
Dream-maker,
Love-taker don't ya mess around with me.
You're a heartbreaker
Dream-maker
Love-taker don't ya mess around no, non, no!

Your love has set my soul on fire
Burnin' out of control
Ya taught me the ways of desire,
Now it's takin' its toll!

You're the right kind of sinner
To release my inner fantasy
The invincible winner
And you know that you are born to be


You're the right kind of sinner
To release my inner fantasy
The invincible winner
And you know that you are born to be

You're a heartbreaker
Dream-maker
Love-taker don't ya mess around with me


2. I Need a Lover

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah- hey hit the highway

Well I've been walking the streets in the evening
Racing through this human jungle at night
I'm so confused, my mind is indifferent
Hey- I'm so weak, won't someone shut out that light
Electricity runs threw the video
And i watch from this hole i call home
And all the stones that are dancin' to the radio
I got the world calling me tonight on the phone

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah- hey hit the highway

Well I'm not wiped out by this poolroom life I'm livin'
But I'm gonna quit my job, and go to school, and head back home
Now I'm not asking to be loved or be forgiven
Hey- i just can't face shakin' in this bedroom one more night alone

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone to thrill me, and then go away
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy

I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
I need a lover that won't drive me mad
I need a lover that won't drive me crazy
Someone that knows the meaning of ah - hey hit the highway


3. If you Think you Know How to Love me

A breathless drive on a downtown street
Motorbike ride in the mid-day heat

The dust that hung form the desert skies
Run, though we run it still burned our eyes
Oh, yes we can walk on the wild, wild side of life
And our movements traced by a stranger close by your side
And in the shadows of a promise, you can take my hand
An show me the way to understand

So if you think you know how to love me
And you think you know what i need
And if you really, really want me to stay
You've got to lead the way
Yes, if you think you know how to love me
And if you really, really want me to stay
You've got to lead the way

A reckless night in a nameless town
And we moved out of sight, with a silent sound
A beach that wept with deserted waves
That's where we slept, knowing we'd be safe

Now you may think you can walk on the wild, wild side with me
But there's a lot i can learn, and a lot that I've yet to see
You know you got my life lying in your hands
It's up to you to make me understand

so if you think you know how to love me
And you think you know what i need
And if you really, really want me to stay
You've got to lead the way


4. In the Heat of the Night

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, no one can feel like you
Out in the summertime city, ain't it a pity
There's so much to tie you down
You're leaving to night to somewhere you can't be found

While down at the edge of town
At a pool hall where they all hang around
You hear them talkin' about the girls they knew
And talk about what they're gonna do
Then you ask yourself, is this where you belong?
Is 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 seachin' for something new
But nothin' is real, and no one can feel like you
They say that eagles fly in this red hot sky
But were they just passin' through
Or did they look down, and see what you found was true

But still in the back of your mind
You've got somethin' to believe in, but there's so much to find
As the 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!
But what you see you'll never forget, and 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
Well, here it is, the love you've been waitin' for
Why, oh why
Standin' in front of you like an open door

And then you ask yourself, is 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 wanna do
You do what you feel, cause no one can feel like you


5. My Clone Sleeps Alone

You know and I know my clone sleeps alone
She's out on her own - forever
She's programmed to work hard, she's never profane
She won't go insane, not ever
No V.D., no cancer, on T.V's the answer
No father, no mother,, she's just like the other
And you know and I know, my clone sleeps alone

Your clone loves my clone, but yours cannot see
That's no way to be, in heaven
No sorrow, no heartache, just clone harmony
So obviously, it's heaven

No naughty clone ladies allowed in the eighties
No bed names, no sex games, just clone names and clone games
And you know and I know my clone sleeps alone

Before we existed the cloning began
The cloning of man and woman
When we're gone they'll live on, cloned endlessly
It's mandatory in heaven

But they won't remember or ever be tender
No loving, no caring, no program for pairing
No V.D., no cancer, on T.V's the answer
No father, no mother, she's just like the other

No naughty clone ladies allowed in the eighties
And you know and I know my clone sleeps alone
My clone sleeps alone!
My clone sleeps alone!


6. We Live for Love

Your love's contagious, one kiss is dangerous
But I have more to risk, than you to lose
I feel passion growing I know that love is only
Just one inch away, from striking us

We live for love; we live for love

When we get tired, and watch the summer fade away
Will you think of romance, what will we do?
Is there a place where we can go?
Where time stands still for those who know?
Till eternity we'll fulfill our desires

We live for love; we live for love
We live for love; we live for love

I never planned to win the race
But you convinced me face to face
There was never a chance of losing at all

We live for love; we live for love
We live for love; we live for love
We live for love; we live for love


7. Rated X

She's a personality, enjoying popularity
For making moivies rated x
Posing for a magazine, picture in a limousine
Someone simulating sex
Never thought that she could be
Lonely with her vanity
Wasted days and lonely nights
Working for the sugar man
Make each other happy man
Cause satisfaction's guaranteed all night

Drinking champagned is a past time
Making hot love is a main line
Money buys love and a wild time
Making hot love is a main line
Hot love!

She wakes up, and breaks up
And wonders why love is unkind
She waits up, and makes up
And looks in the mirror to find

Pink champagne and diamond rings
Fascinating bright young things
Dancing at teh discotechs
Starring form teh silver screen
See you in a midnight dream -rated x

Drinking champagne is a past time
Making hot love is a main line
Money buys love and a wild time
Making hot love is a main line

Drinking champagne is a past time
Making hot love is a main line
Money buys love and a wild time
Making hot love is a main line
Hot love!

Come on, gimme' hot love
Satisfaction guaranteed


8. Dont Let it Show

If it's getting harder to face everyday
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Though it's getting harder to take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go
And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't own me

Even if it's taking the easy way out
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything
Don't let it, don't let it show

Even though you know it's the wrong thing to say
Say you don't care, say you don't care
Even if you want to believe there's a way
I won't be there, I won't be there

But if you smile when they mention my name
They'll never know you
And if you laugh when they say I'm to blame
They'll never own you

Even if you feel you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything
Don't let it, don't let it show

Even though you feel you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in, don't tell them anything
Don't let it, don't let it show


9. No You Don't

You keep tellin' me don't hang around
While you play around with the clowns that you found
It ain't right
Now and then i get tired of the sound of you putting me down
While you're playing the town every night
I'm getting hung up. yes i am, yes i am
And you don't give a damn

No you Don't
Have to treat me like a fool
No you Don't
Have to be so bloody cool
No you Don't
Have to make up all the rules
No you Don't
No, No you Don't
No you Don't

You keep playing your reckless games that will bring you fame
But I'll take the blame for your name

Well you think you've got my life in your hands
But you don't understand. that I've got my own plans
My own plans
I'm going down, yes i am, yes i am
And you don't give a damn




10. So Sincere

We say I love you and we're so sincere
I look in you eyes and it becomes quite clear
You want what I want, you need what i need
When I turn to leave
You plead, and plead, and plead, and plead, and plead
We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere

Now I'm sure I'm right and I'm so sincere
You convince me I'm wrong with a single tear
You want me so badly, you can't live without me
When i turn to leave
You bleed, and bleed, and bleed, and plead, and plead

We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere

We're livin' so fast we're not living at all
Two sparrows tied together will always fall
We know we love each other so there's nothin' to prove
But I'm gonna smother if somebody don't move

We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere
We're so sincere
