This is gonna hurt but I blame myself first 'Cause I ignored the truth Drunk off that love, my head up There's no forgetting you You've awoken me, but you're choking me I was so obsessed Gave you all of me, and now honestly, I got nothing left I loved you dangerously More than the air that I breathe Knew we would crash at the speed that we were going Didn't care if the explosion ruined me Baby, I loved you dangerously Mmmm, mmmm I loved you dangerously Usually, I hold the power with both my hands Tied behind my back Look at how things change, 'cause now you're the train And I'm tied to the track You've awoken me, but you're choking me I was so obsessed Gave you all of me, and now honestly, I got nothing left 'Cause I loved you dangerously More than the air that I breathe Knew we would crash at the speed that we were going Didn't care if the explosion ruined me Baby, I loved you dangerously You took me down, down, down, down And kissed my lips quick goodbye I see it now, now, now, now It was a matter of time You know I know, there's only one place this could lead But you are the fire, I'm gasoline I love you, I love you, I love you I loved you dangerously Ooh, more than the air that I breathe Oh now, knew we would crash at the speed that we were going Didn't care if the explosion ruined me Oh, oh baby, I loved you dangerously Mmmm, mmmm Ooh, I loved you dangerously Ooh ooh, I loved you dangerously
