Boxing — текст песни (Bette Midler)

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 theyre back, laughing.



Howard, my intentions

Become not to lose what Ive won.

Ambition has given way

To 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 knew

A couple of years Id be through.

Has boxing been good to you?



Howard, now I confess

Im 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 knew

A couple of years Id 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.



Boxings been good to me, howard.

Now Im told,

"youre growing old."

The whole time we knew

A couple of years Id be through.

Has boxing been good,

Has boxing been good,

Has boxing been good?
