You take your chances, modern romances
Remember everything that you've learned
If you give into desire, you're playin' with fire
And you could be so easily burned

If you want to be a lover you'd better take cover
It's too late to forgive, if you forget
When you roll the dice you'd better think twice
'Cause what you see ain't always what you get

You take the risk right from the start
'Cause love is a dangerous thing
It's like a loaded gun pointed straight at your heart
Love is a dangerous thing

When your first reaction is for satisfaction
Don't forget that you've got plenty of time
Before you give into it you'd better think through it
Remember it's your life on the line

Ohh, if you're lookin' for a lover you'd better take cover
It's too late to forgive if you forget
When you roll the dice you'd better think twice
'Cause what you see ain't always what you get

You take the risk right from the start
'Cause love is a dangerous thing
It's like a loaded gun pointed straight at your heart
Love is a dangerous thing
Say love is a dangerous thing, ohh, yea

Gotta get love, God I need love, gotta have it lookin' for love
Want it but I'd better not give into your love
'Cause it's a dangerous thing
Gotta get love, God I need love, gotta have it lookin' for love
Want it but I'd better not give into your love
'Cause love is a dangerous thing

Take the risk right from the start
'Cause love is a dangerous thing
It's like a loaded gun pointed straight at your heart
Love is a dangerous thing

Love won't kiss the day you were born
Love is a dangerous thing
It's like a loaded gun pointed straight at your heart
Love is a dangerous thing

Love is a danger
Love is a dangerous
Love is a dangerous thing
I say love is a dangerous
Love is a dangerous
Love is a dangerous thing
