Because The Night

1. 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 under your command
Take my hand, come under cover
They can't hurt you now.

[Chorus:]
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us.

2. Have I doubt, baby, when I'm alone
Love is a ring on the telephone
Love is an angel, disguised as lust
Here in our bed 'til the morning comes.

Come on now, try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand, come under cover
They can't hurt you now.

[Bridge:]
With love we sleep, with doubt the vicious circle turns, and burns
Without you, I cannot live, forgive the yearning burning
I believe in love too real to feel, take me now, take me now, take me now.
