If I could see your face
As you walk away
Would I catch the one expression
I don't wanna see?
And if I could read your mind
Tell me what I'd find
Hey baby I'm not out to get you
I only wanna know you better
It's a shady business
When you don't know where you stand
It's a shady business
While you wait to play your hand
It's a shady business
When you take all things on trust
And as long as the devil
Suspicion don't get you
That's good enough for a shady business
It's a shady business
Love's a shady business
Too much in between
Too much sight unseen
Love lets you stumble blindly in the dark
Just what separates
Love and hate?
Why some people make it
When others just can't take it
It's a shady business
When you don't know where you stand
It's a shady business
While you wait to play your hand
It's a shady business
When you take all things on trust
And as long as the devil
Suspicion don't get you
That's good enough for a shady business
It's a shady business
Love's a crazy business
It's a shady business
When you don't know where you stand
It's a shady business
While you wait to play your hand
It's a shady, shady business
When you take all things on trust
And as long as the devil
Suspicion don't get you
That's good enough for a shady business
Love's a crazy business
Love's a shady business
When you don't know where you stand
It's a shady business
