Текст песни Boxing

have happened lately when I

take a good swing

and all my dreams

they pivot and slip.

I drop my fists

and they're back, laughing.

Howard, my intentions

become not to lose what I've won.

Ambition has given way

to desperation and I,

I've lost the fight from my eyes.

Boxing's been good to me, Howard.

Now I'm told,

"You're growing old."

The whole time we knew

a couple of years I'd be through.

Has boxing been good to you?

Howard, now I confess

I'm scared and lonely and tired.

Everyone says I'm made of clay,

that I've had my day,

that I'm not cut out for this.

I just know what to say.

And I say,

boxing's been good to me, Howard.

Now I'm told,

"You're growing old."

The whole time we knew

a couple of years I'd be through.

Has boxing been good to you?

Well, sometimes I punch myself

hard as I can.

Yelling, "nobody cares!"

hoping someone will tell me how wrong I am,

Howard.

Boxing's been good to me, Howard.

Now I'm told,

"You're growing old."

The whole time we knew

a couple of years I'd be through.

Has boxing been good,

has boxing been good,

has boxing been good?
