(Patti Smith/Bruce Springsteen)

Take me now, baby, here as I am, hold me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger, the fire I breathe, love is a banquet on which we feed
Come on now, try and understand, the way I feel under your command
Take my hand, come undercover, 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 love
Because the night belongs to lovers, because the night belongs to us

Have I doubt when I'm alone, love is a ring on 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 me now as the sun descends, they can't touch you now
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now

Because the night belongs to lovers, because the night belongs to love
Because the night belongs to lovers, because the night belongs to us

(Flûte solo)

With love we sleep, with doubt, the vicious circle turns and burns
Without you, I cannot live, forgive the yearning burning
I believe this live too real to feel, so touch me now
Touch me now, touch me now, now

Because the night belongs to lovers, because the night belongs to love
Because the night belongs to lovers, because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to lovers, if we believe in the night we trust
Because the night, there are two lovers
If we believe in the night we trust
Because the night, because the night
Because the night, if we believe.
