You walk by me

And my heart goes faster

Those eyes that smile, I know all the while

I'm courtin' disaster

You call my tune, I just obey it

Was long ago you loved me, I know

I once heard you say it

So I keep going on without ever knowing

All that I need to do

And I know some how,

It's the same way now for you.

And you're courtin' disaster too

I'm not an innocent man

Then you happened my way

Two paths that chanced to cross

One night on some secret highway

Still hear your words

And I believe you meant it

Your voice, that sound, the heat

What's worse, I still can remember

Can I keep going on without ever knowing

All that I need to do

And to know some how

It's the same way now for you

And we're courtin' disaster

Yeah, we're courtin' disaster

I could try to run away

But the feeling just won't set me free

If you need to find me,

You can find me here waiting

That's where I'll be

So walk on by

Temptation's growin'

Sometimes you court disaster

Just cause it keeps you going.

There's times you court disaster too

Without ever knowing
