Ben Folds - Boxing Lyrics
Howard, the strangest thingsHave happened lately when iTake a good swing at all my dreamsThey pivot and slipI drop my fists and they're backLaughingHoward,My intention's becomeNot to lose what i've wonAmbition has given way toDesperation and iLost the fight for my eyesChorusBoxing's been good to me, howardNow i'm told, "you're growing old"The whole time we knewA couple of years i'd be throughHas boxing been good to you?Howard, now i confessI'm scared and lonely and tiredThey seem to think i'm made of clayAnother dayI'm not cut out for thisI just know what to sayI sayChorusWell sometimes i punch myselfHard as i can, yelling"nobody cares"Hoping some one will tell meHow wrong i amHoward,ChorusBoxing's been good to me howardNow i'm told"you're growing old"The whole time you knewA couple of yearsI'd be throughHas boxing been good. . .Has boxing been good. . .Has boxing been good?
