Behind The Wall by Tracy Chapman

Last (1)__________ I heard the screaming
Loud (2)____________ behind the wall
Another sleepless (3)__________ for me
It won't do no (4)________ to call
The police
Always come late
If (5)________ (6)________ at all

Last night I (7)__________ the screaming
Loud (8)____________ (9)____________ the wall
Another (10)__________________ (11)__________ for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always come late
If they come at all

And when they arrive
they say they can't interfere
With (12)________________ affairs
Between a man and his wife
And as (13)________ (14)________ out the door
The tears (15)________ up in her eyes

Last (16)__________ I (17)__________ the screaming
Then a silence that chilled my soul
Prayed (18)________ I was dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road

And the policeman said
'I'm (19)________ to (20)________ the peace
Will the crowd disperse
I (21)__________ we all could use some sleep'

Last night I (22)__________ the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleepless (23)__________ for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always (24)________ late
If they come at all
