about
“Love Me If You Dare” is my love letter to retro pop. I get to sing through the roller coaster ups and downs of falling for a new lover and the internal war between confidence and vulnerability, ego and doubt that is inherent in explosive love. It’s a challenge: “love me if you dare” and a plea “would you follow me? I would follow anywhere.” One of the things I love about this song is that, just like the emotions it represents, the track takes you on an unexpected journey - musical arrangements change and double back, counts alter – it breaks your expectations. It’s somehow cool and fire-y, groove-y and experimental all at once.
- Shaina Silver-Baird
lyrics
Over the map
Animal trap
Love me if you dare
I’ve seen it all
Taken some falls
Love me if you dare
Hit or miss
Prison or bliss
Could you know me, maybe I could take a chance (if you dare)
Could you follow me, I would follow anywhere (if you dare)
And if the storm breaks, I don’t know if I would last (if you dare)
Love me if you dare (if you dare)
Love me if you dare
Give in desire
Walk through my fire
Love me if you dare
Lost in a funk
Consumin’ junk
Love me if you dare
Could you know me, maybe I could take a chance (if you dare)
Could you follow me, I would follow anywhere (if you dare)
And if the storm breaks, I don’t know if I would last (if you dare)
Love me if you dare (if you dare)
Love me if you dare
You broke my losing streak
My knees are feeling weak
Now there’s no turning back
The cards have come unstacked
Could you know me, maybe I could take a chance (if you dare)
Could you follow me, I would follow anywhere (if you dare)
And if the storm breaks, I don’t know if I would last (if you dare)
Love me if you dare (if you dare)
Love me if you dare (if you dare)
