Lovers in a Dangerous Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
The next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all

[Chorus]
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime—
But nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight—
Got to kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight

[Chorus]
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
And we're lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time

[Outro]
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
