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 n
