  Take me now, baby, here as I am 

  Pull me close, try and understa-and 

  Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe 

  Love is a banquet on which we fee-eed
• GADAHmiGADGACHmiF♯
  B1:
  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 no-o-o-ow

  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to lust 

  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to us

  S2:
  Have I doubt when I'm alone 

  Love is a ring, the telepho-one 

  Love is an angel disguised as lust 

  Here in our bed until the morning co-omes
• GADAHmiGADGACHmiF♯
  B2:
  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 no-o-o-ow

  R1:
  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to lust 

  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to us

  B3:
  With love we sleep, with doubt the vicious circle 

  Turns and burns 

  Without you, oh, 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 no-ow
• HmiAHmiGGAHmiHmiGAHmiGAHmi
  R1:
  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to lust 

  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to us
• HmiAHmiGGAHmiHmiGAHmiGAHmi
  R2:
  Because tonight there are two lovers 

  If we believe in the night we trust 

  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to lust
• HmiAHmiGGAHmiHmiGAHmiGAHmi
  R3:
  Because the night belongs to lovers 

  Because the night belongs to lust 

  'Cause we believe tonight we're lovers 

  'Cause we believe, in the night we trust
