Boxer

World went out, The lights went out too, The world went out, The lights went out too.
Steal my home, steal my heart from under me.
When the world went out, the lights went out too.
I was a boxer then.
I was knocking men out for fun.
I was a boxer then.
I was knocking men out for fun.
Wrap me up to make my bread for the family.
I was a boxer then.
I was knocking men out for fun.
Stop to rest, stop under them.
I'm bending time, to satisfy.
I'll cross the border before next day falls.
I kiss you by, the kitchen door.
And with a heart due north, I will make my course.
I'll return a ring and a pint and a course.
But could I open up my mouth enough to let marching bands declare my love.
Or to see your ships twenty miles unfurled.
To send messages of my return.
In the nighttime call.
