Lovers In A Dangerous Time

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


Lovers in a dangerous time



- Bruce Cockburn
