Live 19 Mar 2000 version
Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close, try and understand
Work all day out in the hot sun
Stay with me now till the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
They 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
What I got baby I have earned
What I'm not darling I have learned
Desire hunger is the fire I breathe
Stay in my bed till the morning come
Well come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends
They can't hurt us now
They can't hurt us now
They can't hurt us now
Yeah because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to lust
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Your love is here and now
The vicious circle turns and burns without
You know I cannot live, forgive me now
But time has come to take the moment and
They can't hurt us now
No they can't hurt us 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
[Guitar solo]
One, tow!
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
The above lyrics are for the live 19 Mar 2000 performance of BECAUSE THE NIGHT at Ice Palace in Tampa, FL, during The Reunion Tour.
