"Because the Night"
by 10000.maniacs
lyrics by Patti Smith and Bruce Springsteen
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 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.
(chorus)
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, 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 hurt you now,
can't hurt you now,
can't hurt you now.
(chorus)
With love we sleep;
with doubt the vicious circle turns and turns.
Without you, oh I cannot live, forgive, the yearning, burning,
I believe in time, too real to feel.
So, take me now,
take me now,
take me now.
(chorus)
