Because the Night

Take me now, baby, here as I am

Pull me close, try and understand

Desire's 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 when I'm 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 us

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night belongs to us

Have I a 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 us

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night belongs to us

It belongs to us

With love we sleep

With doubt the vicious circle turns and turns

The yearning burning

And I believe it's time to really feel

So touch me now, touch me now, touch me now

Oh, because the night

Because the night

Because the night

Because the night belongs to us

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night belongs to us

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night belongs to us

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night

Because the night belongs to lovers

Because the night belongs to us
