Dangerous Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, I wish that I could be selfish
But I know what that means
That you would be out there hurting
Oh, and I would be free
(Let me be selfish)
So, come find me in the middle of the night
I'll be your home, we'll be safe from all the light
[Chorus]
Why am I so dangerous to you?
You know I wanna let you in
I know you what you wanna do
Why am I so dangerous to you?
You know I'm gonna let you in
Don't you worry, I'll find you
[Post-Chorus]
Give me one night, one dance, one sip (Sip)
Give me one night, no tears in your eyes
Give me one night with your hands on this (This)
Give me one bite and don't be shy
Give me one night, one dance, one sip (Sip)
Give me one night, no tears in your eyes
Give me one night with your hands on this (This)
Give me one bite and don't be shy
[Verse 2]
Give me what I what
And don't be protecting me from the things we can't control
Can't we just be in denial one second to the next?
If we just stay here
[Chorus]
Why am I so dangerous to you?
You know I wanna let you in
I know you what you wanna do (I know you what you wanna do)
(Wanna make it dan-dan-dangerous)
Why am I so dangerous to you? (To you; Oh-oh-oh)
You know I'm gonna let you in
Don't you worry, I'll find you (Let me in, let me in)
[Post-Chorus]
Give me one night, one dance, one sip (Sip)
Give me one night, no tears in your eyes
Give me one night with your hands on this (This)
Give me one bite and don't be shy
Give me one night, one dance, one sip (Sip)
Give me one night, no tears in your eyes
Give me one night with your hands on this (This)
Give me one bite and don't be shy
[Outro]
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
I just wanted to keep you safe
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
But it was never gonna be here
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
And it was never gonna be with me

What did Hailee Steinfeld say about "Dangerous"?
Eleven days ago, I found myself somewhere I haven’t been in over two years: a recording studio. Not just any recording studio, but Jimi Hendrix’s Electric Lady! I’m sitting in this room I’d always dreamed of seeing up close, and suddenly, it’s 4 in the morning, and I have a taste of something I miss...
What was the inspiration behind the song?
So, Ludwig score guided the whole thing and what a jumping off point. I mean, the amount of times, you know, and the amount of time spent, I should say, trying to find the track and oftentimes the, the order of what you, you know, come to the table with is rarely the same. It could be an idea or a t...
What was it like for Hailee recording this song at Electric Lady Studios?
I have always wanted to record at Electric Lady. I have heard stories, of course, read stories, I’ve seen images and it just always seemed like that place that you would inevitable create some form of magic, and not only so to be there was one thing, to be there with Ludwig was another. Definetly ha...
Why did Hailee feel like it was the Sinners soundtrack was the right moment to release new music?
It just made sense, it just, you know, it’s funny, I don’t know that I realized it had been as long as it had been until it was brought to my attention, and I went back and sort of looked. It was really never a matter of taking any specific amount of time away but just whatever amount of time it wou...
