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 will 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've 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
  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
    You made me
  A shadowboxer, baby
  I wanna be ready
  For what you do
  I've been swinging
  All around me
  'Cause I don't know
  When you're gonna
  Make your move
