Intro- Bm, G, A, Bm, G, A, Bm

Verse-

Bm G A Bm
Take me now, baby, here as I am.
G A Bm
Pull me close try and understand.
G A Bm
Desire is hunger, is the fire I breathe.
G A Bm
Love is a banquet on which we feed.
G A D A
Come on now, try and understand
Bm G A
the way I feel when I'm in your hand.
D G A
Take my hand; come under cover.
C Bm F#
They can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now.


Chorus-

Bm G A
Because the night belongs to lovers.
Bm G A Bm
Because the night belongs to lust.
G A
Because the night belongs to lovers.
Bm G A Bm
Because the night belongs to us.


Second verse-

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 my hand as the sun descends.
They can't touch you now, can't touch you now, can't touch you now.

Repeat chorus

Ending-

D A D A Bm A
With love we sleep; with doubt the viscious circle turn and turns.
D A Bm A D A
Without you I cannot live, forgive the yearning, burning
G D G
I believe in time, too real to feel,
Bm D G F#
so touch me now, touch me now, touch me now.

Repeat chorus and fade.
