Dancing on Dangerous Ground (lyric only)
(03/11/03)

(V)
It’s him, he’s lost the excitement.
For her he no longer yearns.
He’s now cold-hearted and distant.
So she treats him the same in return.
The one she’s with now understands her.
She sees him when he’s not around.
Their secret is safe at the moment
but she’s dancing on dangerous ground.

(V)
It’s her she’s lost fascination.
Her passion no longer burns.
She keeps herself secret and hidden.
His snuggles she no longer returns.
The one that he’s with understands him.
He sees her when she’s not around.
Their secret is safe at the moment
but he’s dancing on dangerous ground.

(Chorus)
Neither one sees the ramifications,
or both have turned a blind eye.
To the truth that now lays before them.
How much longer can they live this lie?
They both pay no heed to vows spoken.
Words that should honor and bound.
Many a heart will be broken
while they’re dancing on dangerous ground.

(V)
Do they even now think of their children?
Oh! Deep down inside they still do.
But they’re so caught up, both feel broken.
Their pieces too many to glue.
The ones that they’re with understands them,
they listen and not make a sound.
All secrets are safe at the moment
but they’re dancing on dangerous ground. (Chorus)

(Tag)
Many a heart will be broken.
Many a life will be drowned.
Too many it seems at the moment
are dancing on dangerous ground.
