Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by
G Amin F
You never get to stop and open your eyes
G Amin F
One day you're waiting for the sky to fall
G Amin F
And next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
These fragile bodies of touch and taste
G Amin F
This vibrant skin, this hair like lace
G Amin F
Spirits open to the thrust of grace
G Amin F
Never a breath you can afford to waste
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime
G Amin F
But nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
G Amin F
You gotta kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
When you're lovers in a dangerous time
G Amin F
Lovers in a dangerous time
