**Lyrics:**

        Em              G  
      Take me now, baby, here as I am
             D                        A  
      Pull me close, try and understand
         Em              G  
      I work all day to get you money at night
               D                          A  
      Just want to feel you in my arms
       
        Em               G  
      Because the night belongs to lovers
       D                     A  
      Because the night belongs to us

        Em               G  
      Have I doubt when I'm alone?
       D                           A  
      Love is a ring, the telephone
        Em                   G  
      Love is an angel disguised as lust
           D                        A  
      Here in our bed 'til the morning comes

        Em               G  
      Because the night belongs to lovers
       D                     A  
      Because the night belongs to us
