Because the night

Take me now baby here as i am
pull 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 hand
take my hands come undercover
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 life
because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to us

Have I doubt when I am alone
love is a ring on 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 hands and the sun descends
can't touch me now, can't touch me now, can't touch me now Because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to life
because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to us (x2)

Come on now try and understand
the way I feel under your command
take my hands and the sun descends
can't touch me now, can't touch me now, can't touch me now

Because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to life
because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to us (x2)

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
