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. 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 hurt you now Chorus D A D A With love we sleep; with doubt the vicious Bm A circle turns and burns.
