Shadowboxer

Once my lover now my friend

What a cruel thing to pretend

What a cunning way to condescend

Once my lover and now my friend

Oh you creep up like the clouds

And you set my soul at ease

Then you let your love abound

And you bring me to my knees

Oh it's evil babe

The way you let your grace enrapture me

When well you know I'd be insane

To ever let that dirty game recapture me

You made me a shadowboxer baby

I wanna be ready for what you do

I been swinging around 'cause

I don't know when you're gonna make your move

Oh your gaze is dangerous

And you fill your space so sweet

If I let you get too close

You'll set your spell on me

So darlin' I just wanna say

Just in case I don't come through

I was onto every play

I just wanted you

Oh it's so evil my love

The way you've no reverence to my concern

So I'll be sure to stay wary of you love

To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn

So I'm a shadowboxer baby

I wanna be ready for what you do

I been swinging around at nothin

I don't know when you're gonna make your move

Yeah I'm a shadowboxer baby

I wanna be ready for what you do

And I been swinging around me 'cause

I don't know when you're gonna make your move
