boxing þarký sözü

howard, the strangest things
have happened lately when i
take a good swing at all my dreams
they pivot and slip
i drop my fists and they´re back
laughing
howard,

my intention´s become
not to lose what i´ve won
ambition has given way to
desperation and i
lost the fight for my eyes

chorus
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
they seem to think i´m made of clay
another day
i´m not cut out for this
i just know what to say
i say

chorus

well sometimes i punch myself
hard as i can, yelling
"nobody cares"
hoping some one will tell me
how wrong i am
howard,

chorus
boxing´s been good to me howard
now i´m told
"you´re growing old"
the whole time you knew
a couple of years
i´d be through
has boxing been good...
has boxing been good...
has boxing been good?
