We could be strangers in the night
We could be passing in the shadows
We couldn't be closer if we tried
When we're caught in the headlights
We could be faces in the crowd
We could be passing in the shadows
Loving the risk of being found
When we're caught in the headlights
Dangerous
Your love is always dangerous
And now I'm lost in us
We're living in a lie of trust
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
I was a vacant alibi
Trading the truth in for a lie, oh
We were the essence of desire
And we're caught in the headlights
Dangerous
Your love is always dangerous
And now I'm lost in us
We're living in a lie of trust
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you (I don't know)
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you (I don't know)
To do with you (I don't know)
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
Dangerous (tell me that you love me)
Your love is always dangerous (tell me that you love me)
I don't know why
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you (I don't know)
To do with you (I don't know)
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you (I don't know)
To do with you (I don't know)
I don't know why
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
