martyn joseph - shadow boxing lyrics

[verse 1]
you stand there and you shadow box me
though it feels like i could blow you down
you’re still in there fighting like a good one now
yeah, you’re smiling and you’re ducking down
we played that game when i was a kid
yeah, we played it all our lives

[chorus]
bottom line is love, my father
bottom line is love
the bottom line is love, my father
the bottom line is love

[verse 2]
that was you there in my corner
when i went down for the count
i could spit blood there in the bucket
you’d patch me up and you send me out
some nights i’d dance there with you
other days there’d be a thousand miles

[chorus]
bottom line is love, my father
bottom line is love
bottom line is love, my father
bottom line is love
bottom line is love, sweet father
the bottom line is love
bottom line is love, my father
the bottom line is love
[verse 3]
and i sit in dappled sunshine, approaching 6 o’clock
an incandescent moment and a soul that’s taking stock
it’s time to call my father, he’ll be sleeping in a chair
and he’d kiss me if he knew me but his mind resides elsewhere
i have an anger, i have sadness
i have joy that won’t let go

[chorus]
the bottom line is love, my father
bottom line is love
the bottom line is love, my father
the bottom line is love
the bottom line is love, my father
the bottom line is love
the bottom line is love, sweet father
bottom line is love

[outro]
you taught me that
