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 hands
|
take my hand come undercover
|
they 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 lust
|
because the night belongs to lovers
|
because the night belongs to us
|
|
have I doubt when I'm 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 can't touch you now,
|
can't touch you now, can't touch you now
|
because the night belongs to lovers...
|
|
with love we sleep
|
with doubt the vicious circle
|
turn and burns
|
without you I cannot live
|
forgive, the yearning burning
|
I believe it's time, too real to feel
|
so touch me now, touch me now, touch me now
|
because the night belongs to lovers...
|
|
because tonight there are two lovers
|
if we believe in the night we trust
|
because tonight there are two lovers...
|
