Song lyrics
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 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 
Turns 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 
Because the night belongs to love
Because the night belongs to lovers 
Because the night belongs to us

Just for the record: this song is written by Bruce Springsteen, who let Patti have the song when he decided not to use it on his Darkness on the Edge of Town album (1978). Springsteen never released the song, but he has used it in many of his concerts and it can be found on some live CDs.
