Lovers In A Dangerous Time Lyrics - Lucky Dube

He built this wall around himself 

Many years ago 

To protect himself from being hurt again 

But he couldn' t stop his feelings 

Last night yeah 

When he saw the young lady in the bar 

Blonde hair, blue eyes 

Waited till the band played the last song 

And took her home 

His mother didn' t like her 

His father didn' t like her 

The only thing that kept them 

Going was knowing that 

Love would conquer all 

Chorus: 

They were lovers 

In a dangerous time 

They ran away to another country 

'Cause they thought things would be 

Better for them out there 

In the month of December 

They got married in Chicago 

And it was all the same 

Everywhere they went 

Heads would turn 

Chorus till fade
