Dangerous

I awoke with a fright from a terrible dream

We were performers way up on a flying trapeze

The spotlight followed our silvery swings

There were fanfares and drumrolls and everything

Then it came to the part where we meet in midair

And I held out my hands but your hands weren't there

And I fell, and I fell

That's when I woke with a fright

From that terrible dream

And you were there by my side like you've always been

I wondered what it meant and I answered 'who knows'

Just insecure I suppose

It's a frightening and dangerous thing

To give your heart to someone

Your relax, turn your back

And they're gone

"Three hundred lost' the newsreader said

In a wayward flight bound for Australia today

I knew you weren't planning no Australian trip

But I called the airport anyway

As the girl ran her fingers down the passenger list

I swear someone could have lived off the heartbeats I missed

And I prayed, oh I prayed

That's when I heard you whistling as you walked in the door

Whistling and walking like always before

And I wondered was I mad and I answered 'who knows'

Just insecure I suppose

It's a frightening and dangerous thing

To give your heart to someone

Your relax, turn your back

And they're gone

It's a frightening and dangerous thing

To give your heart to someone

Your relax, turn your back

And they're gone

And they're gone

And they're gone
