Because the Night

Take me now, baby, here as I am
Pull me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger, it's 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

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
(Because the night) if we believe in the night we trust
Because tonight belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust

Because tonight belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
(Because the night) if we believe we belongs to lovers
(Because the night) if we believe we belongs to lust
Because tonight belongs to lovers
