Patti Smith
Because the Night
It's a lot
It's a lot
It's a lot
It's a lot
It's a lot
It's a lot

It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot

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 hands, come undercover
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 life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot

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

Come on now, try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hands as the sun descends
You can touch me now
Can touch me now
Can touch me now

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
It's a lot
(It's a lot)
It's a lot
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to life
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
