A performer since the age of seven (the age at which he joined the Broadway cast of Annie Get Your Gun), Nicholas made his songwriting debut in 2002, when a holiday tune he'd co-written with his father found its way onto a Broadway Christmas album. A contract with Columbia Records followed two years later. Nicholas began prepping for his solo career by writing material with his older brothers, Kevin and Joseph, who eventually climbed aboard as permanent partners. Nick's solo project thus blossomed into a full-fledged band, and the siblings aptly named themselves the Jonas Brothers.
It took several years for the Jonas Brothers to find an adoring audience. It's About Time, the band's 2006 debut, was a commercial flop, and Columbia Records dropped the group one year later. Signing with Hollywood Records in 2007, the band began attracting new fans -- most of them young and female -- by establishing a presence in the Disney world. They appeared on the network's television shows, earned their own series, starred in a made-for-TV movie with Disney starlet Demi Lovato, and sold close to two million copies of their self-titled sophomore album. They replicated that feat one year later with A Little Bit Longer and returned in 2009 with Lines, Vines and Trying Times. All of the albums featured heavy contributions from Nick, who not only led the songwriting process but also played a wide variety of instruments, from drums to keyboard to guitar.
Taking a rare break from the band, Nick Jonas began working with several other musicians on a side project in late 2009. Members from Prince's New Power Generation were recruited to join the lineup, including Michael Bland and Tommy Barbarella, and the group dubbed itself Nick Jonas & the Administration before making its debut in early 2010 with the album Who I Am. The record performed respectably, peaking at three on the U.S. charts on its way to sales of 151,000, but there were soon suggestions that Nick was planning to return to the Jonas Brothers fold. This didn't happen. A 2013 tour was scrapped just prior to its October launch and, soon afterward, the band split. Nick Jonas regrouped with a 2014 solo tour followed by the November release of an eponymous album. Over the course of 2014, Jonas gained momentum, generating the Top 10 single "Jealous," which also topped Billboard's dance charts, as did "Chains " and "Levels," a bonus track from 2015's Nick Jonas X2.
In the Summer of 2016, Jonas returned with a new full-length effort, Last Year Was Complicated, featuring production by Jason Evigan, Mattman & Robin, Sir Nolan, and others. Included on the album was "Close," a duet with Tove Lo, and "Bacon," featuring Ty Dolla $ign. The album debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. Also around this time, Jonas returned to acting, starring in the erotic thriller Careful What You Wish For and the fraternity hazing drama Goat. In 2017, he released the singles "Remember I Told You," featuring Anne-Marie and Mike Posner, and "Find You." Also that year, he collaborated with Nicki Minaj on the track "Bom Bidi Bom" off the Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack.

Turn my darkness nights into something real
They say take your time
What's the rush? But I know the way I feel
And all those flashing lights
Speaking, tryna tell me if it's love and take it slow
But they can't change my mind
Yeah, I know
Lovin' you is dangerous
But that's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
Don't care what you put me through
My heart's on the line, it could break any time
Yeah, so why, why, why?
Can I stop lovin' you?
You open up the door, I'm coming back for more
Almost like we, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Scares me half to death
The way you take my breath
But we both know the deal, oh no
And all those flashing lights
Speaking, tryna tell me if it's love and take it slow (take it slow)
But they cant change my mind
Yet sometimes we play with fire even though we know
Yeah, I know
Lovin' you is dangerous
But that's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
Don't care what you put me through
My heart's on the line, it could break any time
Yeah, so why, why, why?
Can I stop lovin' you?
It's dangerous
That's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous (yeah)
Don't care what you put me through
My heart has decided, still I try to fight it
And why, why, why?
Can I stop lovin' you?
It's dangerous, yeah, it's dangerous
You wake me up inside
Turn my darkness nights into something real
Oh, lovin' you is dangerous
That's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
Don't care what you put me through
My heart's on the line, it could break any time
Yeah, so why, why, why?
Can I stop lovin' you?
It's dangerous (oh yeah)
That's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
Don't care what you put me through
My heart has decided, still I try to fight it
And why, why, why?
Can I stop lovin' you?
Can I stop lovin' you? It's
Can I stop lovin' you? It's dangerous
In the song "Dangerous" by Nick Jonas, the lyrics express the exhilarating but risky nature of being in love. The song starts with the singer acknowledging the transformative power of their love, as it turns their dark nights into something real. Despite being advised to take it slow, the singer confesses that they know how they feel and can't be swayed by external opinions. They are aware that playing with fire can be dangerous, but they cannot resist the intense attraction they have for their partner.
The chorus emphasizes the dangerous aspect of their love. The singer admits that loving this person is risky, but it is all they want to do. They are willing to endure whatever hardships come their way, as their heart is on the line and could break at any moment. The repetition of "why, why, why" suggests the internal struggle the singer faces in trying to resist their feelings, questioning whether they can truly stop loving this person.
Line by Line Meaning
Wake me up inside
I want you to bring me to life and awaken my emotions
Turn my darkness nights into something real
Bring light and meaning to my lonely and empty nights
They say take your time
People advise me to be patient
What's the rush? But I know the way I feel
Why should I wait? I am aware of my intense emotions
And all those flashing lights
The distractions and temptations that surround us
Speaking, tryna tell me if it's love and take it slow
The signals and opinions suggesting caution and a slower pace in love
But they can't change my mind
However, they cannot alter my determination and mindset
Yet sometimes we play with fire even though we know
Nevertheless, we often engage in risky behavior despite being aware of the consequences
Yeah, I know
Yes, I am fully aware
Lovin' you is dangerous
Being in love with you carries risk and uncertainty
But that's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
However, I can't help but desire to love you, even if it poses a danger
Don't care what you put me through
I am willing to endure any hardships caused by our relationship
My heart's on the line, it could break any time
My vulnerable heart is at stake and could shatter at any moment
Yeah, so why, why, why?
So, why do I still feel this way despite the risks?
Can I stop lovin' you?
Is it possible for me to cease loving you?
You open up the door, I'm coming back for more
Whenever you invite me back into your life, I can't resist returning
Almost like we, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah
It feels as if we have an intense connection or bond
Scares me half to death
It terrifies me to a great extent
The way you take my breath
The way you captivate and leave me breathless
But we both know the deal, oh no
Yet, deep down, we are aware of the agreement or understanding between us
It's dangerous
This situation carries risks and dangers
That's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous (yeah)
Despite the dangers, all I want is to pursue this love
Don't care what you put me through
I am willing to endure any suffering caused by our relationship
My heart has decided, still I try to fight it
Although my heart has chosen to love you, I attempt to resist it
And why, why, why?
And why do I still question and struggle with this?
Can I stop lovin' you?
Is it within my power to stop loving you?
You wake me up inside
You have the ability to awaken my emotions and make me feel alive
Turn my darkness nights into something real
Transform my lonely and melancholic nights into a genuine and meaningful experience
Oh, lovin' you is dangerous
Oh, loving you comes with risks and uncertainties
That's all that I wanna do, it's dangerous
However, all I desire is to love you, even if it poses danger
Don't care what you put me through
I am undeterred by any hardships you may cause
My heart's on the line, it could break any time
My vulnerable heart is at stake and could shatter at any given moment
Yeah, so why, why, why?
So, why do I still question and ponder over this?
Can I stop lovin' you?
Is it possible for me to cease loving you?
Can I stop lovin' you? It's
Can I find a way to stop loving you? It's difficult
Can I stop lovin' you? It's dangerous
Can I manage to stop loving you? It poses risks and hazards
