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 all around me
|
'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 on to every play
|
I just wanted you
|
|
But, oh, it's so evil, mylove, the way you've
|
no reverence to my concern
|
So I'll be sure to be wary of you, love,
|
to save the pain of
|
Once my flame and twice my burn
|
|
You made me a shadowboxer, baby
|
I wanna be ready for what you do
|
I been swinging all around me
|
'Cause I don't know when you're gonna make your move
|
