Because The Night Lyrics By 10 000 Maniacs

    take me now baby here as i am
    hold me close and try and understand
    desire is hunger is the fire i breathe
    love is a banquet on which we feed

    pre
    come on now try and understand
    the way i feel under your command
    take my hand as the sun descends
    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 us
    because the night belongs to lovers
    because the night belongs to us

    have i doubt baby when i’m alone
    love is a ring a telephone
    love is an angel disguised as lust
    here in our bed ’til the morning comes

    pre
    come on now try and understand
    the way i feel under your command
    take my hand as the sun descends
    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 us
    because the night belongs to lovers
    because the night belongs to us

    with love we sleep with doubt the vicious cycle turns and burns
    without you oh i cannot live forgive the yearning burning
    i believe it’s time too real to feel
    so take me now take me now take me now

    because the night belongs to lovers
    because the night belongs to us
    because the night belongs to lovers
    and everybody says that it belongs to us
