Bette Midler - Boxing Lyrics
Howard, the strangest thingsHave happened lately when iTake a good swingAnd all my dreamsThey pivot and slip.I drop my fistsAnd theyre back, laughing.Howard, my intentionsBecome not to lose what Ive won.Ambition has given wayTo desperation and i,Ive lost the fight from my eyes.Boxings been good to me, howard.Now Im told,Youre growing old.The whole time we knewA couple of years Id be through.Has boxing been good to you?Howard, now I confessIm scared and lonely and tired.Everyone says Im made of clay,That Ive had my day,That Im not cut out for this.I just know what to say.And I say,Boxings been good to me, howard.Now Im told,Youre growing old.The whole time we knewA couple of years Id be through.Has boxing been good to you?Well, sometimes I punch myselfHard as I can.Yelling, nobody cares!Hoping someone will tell me how wrong I am,Howard.Boxings been good to me, howard.Now Im told,Youre growing old.The whole time we knewA couple of years Id be through.Has boxing been good,Has boxing been good,Has boxing been good?
