She's a lonely girl, holding secrets deep inside   It's a crazy world, when your heart    and mind collide   A prisoners' action, she's trying to run away   Doesn't know what she'll find,   but she's got to get away      I hear you cry out in the heat of the night   I didn't know I was your ball and chain   Cry out just see the light   I didn't know I was the one to blame      There was a time we shared,   we had all the words to say   But somewhere along this road,   we went our separate ways      I hear you cry out in the heat of the night   I didn't know I was your ball and chain   Cry out just to see the light   I didn't know I was the one to blame   Cry out in the heat of the night   I didn't know I was your ball and chain      You turn and you walk away   Leaving me standing here   With nothing, no words to say   Your silence is clear      solo      chorus out
