LIVIN' DANGEROUSLY
(Mack Discant / Doris Tauber)

as recorded by The McGuire Sisters
1960


When I'm close to you I'm livin' dangerously,
But livin' dangerously can be sweet!
Who cares if I might trip and fracture my heart,
I say the heck with it, I can't be smart,
Who needs it?

When your lips meet mine I'm kissin' dangerously,
But I can't fight what I'm feelin' for you!
Who knows what lies in store no more, no eyes can see,
But I'll go right on livin' dangerously!

But livin' dangerously can be oh so sweet!
So who cares if I might trip and fracture my heart,
I say the heck with it, I can't be smart,
Who needs it?

When your lips meet mine I'm livin' dangerously,
When your lips meet mine,
But I can't fight what I'm feelin' for you!
Who knows what lies in store no more, no eyes can see,
But I'll go right on livin' dangerously!
When you're close I'm livin' dangerously,
When we kiss I'm livin',
So I'll go on livin' dangerously!
