Shadowboxer.

Read More......

I adore this song. The lyrics are so clever.

If you don't have a copy of Fiona Apple's first album, 'Tidal,' I suggest you buy it.

Once my lower, 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'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 incase 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 weary of you, love,
to save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn.
