Lovers In A Dangerous Time Lyrics
Jump to:
Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by
You never get to stop and open our eyes
One minute youre waiting for the sky to fall
The next youre dazzled by the beauty of it all
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
These fragile bodies of touch and taste
This fragrant skin this hair like lace
Spirits open to the thrust of grace
Never a breath you can afford to waste
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
When youre lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes youre made to feel as if your loves a crime
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness til it bleeds daylight
When youre lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
We were lovers in a dangerous time
We were lovers in a dangerous time
You never get to stop and open our eyes
One minute youre waiting for the sky to fall
The next youre dazzled by the beauty of it all
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
These fragile bodies of touch and taste
This fragrant skin this hair like lace
Spirits open to the thrust of grace
Never a breath you can afford to waste
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
When youre lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes youre made to feel as if your loves a crime
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness til it bleeds daylight
When youre lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
We were lovers in a dangerous time
We were lovers in a dangerous time
