Shadowboxer

[Verse 1]

I'm not a lover, but I love her

Can't think of loving any other

Nobody better or above her

She got the rainbows seeking cover

I'm not player, I won't play her

My hands are closing in a prayer

That she might look at me and stare

Then could take it all from there

[Pre-Chorus]

You step up, I step back

My defense, your attack

Slip my shadow side to side

I think I'll do it all over again

My right against your left

Move that body, whip that head

Slip my shadow side to side

I think I'll do it all over again

[Chorus]

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

[Verse 2]

I'm not a caller, but I'll call her

And probably sooner than I outghta

She might be someone's famous daughter

She got a lot of eyes upon her

I'm not a beggar, but I'll beg her

I'd rather save that though for later

When she's already in my favor

You know that she'll be begging me to take her

[Pre-Chorus]

You step up, I step back

My defense, your attack

Slip my shadow side to side

I think I'll do it all over again

My right against your left

Move that body, whip that head

Slip my shadow side to side

I think I'll do it all over again

(Yeah)

[Chorus]

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

[Bridge]

Gonna make me train for this love

I can't make a mistake with this love

Baby, one false move

I might never get a chance with you

Did I fail to mention loving perfection

Ain't that easy to do?

(Yeah)

[Chorus]

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

You gonna give me heart attack

Dancing all around to the moon and back

Fighting myself for a chance at you

Got me swinging at my shadow

[Outro]

You step up, I step back

My defense, your attack

Slip my shadow side to side

(Got me swinging at my shadow)

My right against your left

Move that body, whip that head

Slip my shadow side to side

(Got me swinging at my shadow)
