Because the Night

Take me now baby
here as I am,
hold me close, try
and understand

Desire is hunger is
the fire I breathe,
love is a banquet on
which we feed
Come on now try
and understand
the way I feel when
I'm in your hands
Take my hand come
undercover they
can't hurt you now,
can't hurt you now
Can't hurt you now
because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to lust

Because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to us
Have I doubt when
I'm alone? Love is a
ring, the telephone

Love is an angel
disguised as lust,
here in our bed
until the morning comes
Come on now try
and understand
the way I feel under
your command
Take my hand as the
sun descends they
can't touch you now,
can't touch you now
Can't touch you now
because the night
belongs to lovers,
because the night
belongs to lust

Because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to us
Instrumental

With love we sleep
with doubt the vicious
circle turns and burns

Without you I cannot
live, forgive, the
yearning burning

I believe it's time,
too real to feel
So touch me now,
touch me now,
Touch me now
because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to lust

Because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to us
Because tonight there
are two lovers
if we believe in the
night we trust
Because tonight there
are two lovers
because the night
belongs to lust
Because the night
belongs to lovers
because the night
belongs to us
