Because the night – Patti Smith

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 Im in your hands
Take my hand come undercover
They cant hurt you now, cant hurt you now, cant hurt you now

Because the night belongs to lovers, Because the night belongs to love
Because the night belongs to lovers, Because the night belongs to us

Have I doubt when Im 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 cant touch you now, cant touch you now, cant touch you now

Because the night belongs to lovers, Because the night belongs to love
Because the night belongs to lovers, Because the night belongs to us

(solo)

With love we sleep with doubt the vicious circle
Turns and burns without you I cannot

Live forgive, the yearning burning
I believe its 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 love
Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to us

Because the night there are 2 lovers If we believe in the night we trust
Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to love

Because the night belongs to lovers Because the night belongs to love
Coz we believe the night will love us If we believe in the night we trust
