Shadowboxer
Once my lover, now my friendWhat a cruel thing to pretendWhat a cunning way to condescendOnce my lover, and now my friend
Oh, you creep up like the cloudsAnd you set my soul at easeThen you let your love aboundAnd you bring me to my knees
Oh, it's evil babeThe way you let your grace enrapture meWhen well you know I'd be insaneTo ever let that dirty game recapture me
You made me a shadowboxer, babyI wanna be ready for what you doI been swinging around 'causeI don't know when you're gonna make your move
Oh, your gaze is dangerousAnd you fill your space so sweetIf I let you get too closeYou'll set your spell on me
So darlin' I just wanna sayJust in case I don't come throughI was onto every playI just wanted you
Oh it's so evil, my loveThe way you've no reverence to my concernSo I'll be sure to stay wary of you, loveTo save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn
So I'm a shadowboxer, babyI wanna be ready for what you doI been swinging around at nothinI don't know when you're gonna make your move
Yeah I'm a shadowboxer baby,I wanna be ready for what you doAnd I been swinging around me 'causeI don't know when you're gonna make your move
