because the night



take me now, baby, here as i am

hold me close, try to 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 under cover

can't hurt you now (3x)



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 all alone

love is a ring on the telephone

love is an angel, disguised as lust

here in our bed til the morning comes



with love we sleep, with doubt the vicious circle

turns, and turns

without you, i cannot live, forgive the yearning

burning

i believe in love

too real to feel, touch me now, touch me now
