Píseň: Because The Night

Interpret:
Patti Smith
Album:
Easter
Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which we feed


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 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


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 touch 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


With love we sleep
With doubt the vicious circle
Turn and burns
Without you 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 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


Because tonight there are two lovers
If we believe in the night we trust
Because tonight there are two lovers ...
