Bm       G          A        Bm
Take me now, baby, here as I am
Bm        G            A      Bm
Hold me close, try and understand
Bm         G             A      Bm
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Bm         G           A       Bm
Love is a banquet on which we feed

G        A           D      A
Come on now, try and understand
    Bm     G                     A
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Bm       G                A
Take my hand, come under cover
      C                   Bm
They can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now,
 F#
can't hurt you now

Chorus:
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lovers
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lust
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lovers
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to us
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lovers
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lust
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to lovers
Bm           G       A        Bm
Because the night belongs to us

Bm           G       A       Bm
Because the night belongs to us

Have a doubt, baby, when I'm alone
Love is a ring; a telephone
Love is an angel, disguised as lust
Here in our beds 'til 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

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
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to us
(Because the night)
