Once my lover, now my friend.
What a cruel thing to pretend.
What a cunning way to condescend.
Once my lover, now my friend.
Oh, toi creep up like the clouds.
And toi set my soul to ease.
Then toi let your l’amour abound.
And toi bring me to my knees.
Oh, its evil,babe,the way toi let your grace enrapture me.
When, well, toi know, Id be insane -
To ever let that dirty game recapture me.
toi made me a shadowboxer, baby.
I wanna be ready for what toi do.
I been swinging all around me.
cause I dont know when youre gonna make your move.
Oh, your gaze is dangerous.
And toi fill your l’espace so sweet.
If I let toi get too close,
Youll set your spell on me.
So, darlin, I just wanna say.
Just in case I dont come through.
I was on to every play.
I just wanted you.
But, oh, its so evil, my love,
The way youve no reverence to my concern.
So, Ill be sure to stay wary of you, love,
To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn.

Pale september, I wore the time like a dress that year
The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin
But as the embers of the summer Lost their breath and disappeared
My cœur, coeur went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full
And sank in the burrows of my keep
And all my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im chant him to sleep
He goes along just as a water lily
Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats
Unweighted down par passion ou intensity
Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
And he finds a accueil in me
For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap
And all my armour failing down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im chant him to sleep
All my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im chant him to sleep
