Marc Almond & the Willing Sinners

Champ
Way back then I was a championA fighter in the ringAnd all the crowds would cheerMy praises they would singNow I am a forgotten manA hobo out aloneNo champ to push me onNothing, no-one to call my ownI was a dark eyed boyStars in his eyesPromises made flesh and bloodGrip of armAnd granite charmOh, times were goldenTimes were goodSinew youngAnd skin of oreMolten and streaming with dreamsNow I nod away the daysBarely remembering names it seemsOh, I would smileTo hear the bellRinging out my gloryLike a bull I paced the ringLetras de cancionesMy bloody territoryI held on highThe fist in gloveThe symbol of my powerNow I waitA punch drunk foolTo fade away foreverBroken nosesBroken jawsAnd many broken heartsAn idolAnd a heroTill my courage fell apartAnd now my brain a-ringingWith the final bell and countThey hold my hand up limplyTold the worldThat I was OUT!I didn't mind the scarsThe bloodThe crushing of the handBut to lose a nation'sLove, respectIs something I'll never understandI'm gonna bury my headAnd cry From Letras Mania
