Because the Night
Co.Ro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me now, baby, here as I am
Hold 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, come under cover
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

Have I doubt, baby, when I'm alone
Love is a ring on the telephone
Love is an angel, disguised as lust
Here in our bed 'til the morning comes

Come on try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand, come under cover
They can't hurt you now

With love we sleep, with doubt the vicious circle turns, and burns




Without you, I cannot live, forgive the yearning burning
I believe in love too real to feel, take me now, take me now, take me now
