Boxing - Ben Folds Lyrics - Ben Folds

We'd hit the bottom 

I thought it was my fault 

And in a way I guess it was 

I'm just now finding out 

What it was all about 

Moved to the west coast away from everyone 

She never told me that you called 

Back when I was still, I was still in love 

Till I opened my eyes and walked out the door 

And the clouds came tumbling down 

And it's bye-bye, goodbye, I tried 

And I twisted it wrong just to make it right 

Had to leave myself behind 

I've been flying high all night 

So come pick me up, I've landed 

The daily dramas she made from nothing 

So nothing ever made them right 

She liked to push me and talk me back down 

Until I believed I was the crazy one 

And in a way 

I guess I was 

But I opened my eyes and walked out the door 

And the clouds came tumbling down 

And it's bye-bye, goodbye I tried 

Treading a sea of a troubled mind 

Had to leave myself behind 

Singing bye-bye, goodbye I tried 

If you wrote me off I'd understand it 

Because I've been on some other planet 

So come pick me up 

I've landed 

And you will be so 

Happy to know 

I've come alone 

It's over 

But I opened my eyes and walked out the door 

And the clouds came tumbling down 

And it's by my goodbye I tried 

Down comes the reign of the telephone czar 

It's okay to call 

Now I'll answer for myself 

Come pick me up 

I've landed
