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
If you look up "wokeupwaytoolate", go to the video archive, you can find the whole thing. There are lots of gems there that aren't on youtube for some reason!
Greatest songwriter of our generation.
I love how he sounds the same live as he does being recorded at a studio. He is my favorite artist, and favorite pianist. Great song!
That first BF5 album was so great. Forgot about this song.
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
Goodnight, Champ.
The whole time we knew a couple of years I'd be through.
