Bruce Cockburn Lovers In A Dangerous Time Lyrics

Lovers In A Dangerous Time Lyrics

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