You take your chances with modern romances Remember everything that you've learned If you give into desire you're playing 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 Chorus: 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 If 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 trough it Remember it's your life on the line 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 Chorus 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 Chorus
