matt simons & chris ayer - the boxer كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
i am just a poor boy
though my story’s seldom told
i have squandered my resistance
for a pocket full of mumbles
such are promises
all lies and jest
still, a man hears what he wants to hear
and disregards the rest, hmm

[verse 2]
when i left my home and my family
i was no more than a boy
in the company of strangers
in the quiet of the railway station
running scared
laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
where the ragged people go
looking for the places only they would know
[chorus]
lie_la_lie
liе_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie
liе_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie, la_la_lie_la_lie

[verse 3]
asking only workman’s wages
i go looking for a job
but i get no offers
just a come_on from the wh0res on seventh avenue
i do declare, there were times when i was so lonesome
i took some comfort there
when i lie_lie_lie_lie_lie_lie_lie

[chorus]
lie_la_lie
lie_la lie_la_lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie, la_la_lie_la_lie

[verse 4]
then i’m laying out my winter clothes
and wishing i was gone, going home
where the new york city winters are not bleeding me
leading me
going home
[verse 5]
in the clearing stands a boxer
and a fighter by his trade
and he carries the reminders
of every glove that laid him down
or cut him ’til he cried out
in his anger and his shame
“i am leaving, i am leaving”
though the fighter still remains, still remains

[chorus]
lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie, la_la_lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie
lie_la_lie_la_lie_la_lie, la_la_lie_la_lie
