The Boxer
Lyricist:Paul Simon Composer:Paul Simon Arranger:褚鎮東/花道 監製:褚鎮東 原唱:Simon & Garfunkel
He is just a poor boy Though his story's seldom told He has squandered his resistance For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises All lies and jests Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest, hmmm...
When he left his home and his family He was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of the railway station, runnin' scared Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters Where the ragged people go Looking for the places only they would know
Lie-la-lie......
Now the years are rolling by him They are rockin' evenly Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He is older than he once was And younger than he'll be; that's not unusual Nor is it strange After changes upon changes We are more or less the same After changes we are more or less the same
Lie-la-lie......
Then he is laying out his winter clothes And wishing he was gone, going home Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding him Leading him, going home
In the clearing stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the reminders Of ev'ry glove that laid him down Or cut him till he cried out In his anger and his shame He is leaving, He is leaving But the fighter still remains, hmmm...
Lie-la-lie......
- Special thanks to Chris for sharing the lyric.
