Behind The Wall by Tracy Chapman

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

Last (6)__________ I heard the screaming
Loud (7)____________ (8)____________ the wall
Another (9)__________________ (10)__________ for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always (11)________ late
If they come at all

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

Last night I heard the screaming
Then a silence (14)________ (15)______________ my soul
Prayed (16)________ I was dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road

And the policeman said
'I'm here to keep the peace
Will the (17)__________ disperse
I think we all could use (18)________ sleep'

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud (19)____________ behind the wall
Another (20)__________________ night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always come late
If they (21)________ at all
