Dangerous
And it's danger
That keeps this man alive
Without it
There's no reason to survive
It gives his teeth a grit
It gives his eyes a squint
It gives his masculinity a shine that doesn't quit
She met him on the plane
7A
He sat in 7B
Jesus Christ he made her day
And she fell in love with him
Before she knew his name
She knew this man would change her life she'd never be the same
Dangerous
And it's danger
That keeps her love alive
And it's danger
That gives her passion drive
Each time she says good bye
She's promised not to cry
And the fear that shimmers through her
Puts a sparkle in her eye
And he's quiet in the telling
Of a friend who just died
Another pilot shot down
Newly married to his bride
And she leans over
To intently kiss his face
As if she's memorizing exactly how he tastes
Dangerous
And when they make love
It's like their last
And in the silence
You can hear their voices cast
And now she's twenty minutes late
She races through the door
She leaves the seatbelt dangling never missed his flight before
The sunlight hits her windshield
She doesn't seem to know
About the stoplight
Only four blocks from her home
Dangerous
And he's standing at the airport
He's standing at the gate
He can't believe she had the nerve
To dare to make him wait
He barely made it through alive this time
And it's danger
That kept their love alive
But what happens
When the wrong one dies?
He shakes the doctor angrily
He shakes her once again
Hit hits the ER wall
And he cries out her name
He shakes the doctor angrily
He shakes her once again
He curses at the nurses
And he never flies again
Dangerous
