Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by You never get to stop and open your eyes One day you're waiting for the sky to fall And next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time

These fragile bodies of touch and taste This vibrant skin this hair like lace Spirits open to the thrust of grace Never a breath you can afford to waste

When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time

When you're lovers in a dangerous time Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight Got to kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight

When you're lovers in a dangerous time When you're lovers in a dangerous time When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time
