Boxing

Howard the strangest things

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
