Can be used in a false lead.

Hands up with either a right or left lead.

Push off in a diagonal toward the opponent (not straight, horizontal, or vertical).

Jab as you step diagonally to block the opponent's vision.

Now from a new diagonal angle throw a HOOK across the opponent's face/jaw.

Follow up with a kick, knee, elbow.

So Close - Enchanted GOOD QUALITY!

Lyrics:
You're in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I'm with you
So close to feeling alive

As life goes by
Romantic dreams will start
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you're beside me and look how far we've come
So far we are so close

How could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We're so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far

Andrea Bocelli- Con te Partiro

I’LL GO WITH YOU



When I’m alone
I dream on the horizon
and words fail;
yes, I know there is no light
in a room where the sun is absent,
if you are not with me, with me.
At the windows
show everyone my heart
which you set alight;
enclose within me
the light you
encountered on the street.

I’ll go with you,
to countries I never
saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them.
I’ll go with you
on ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer;
wjth you I shall experience them.

When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail,
and, Yes, I know
that you are with me;
you, my moon, are here with me,
my sun, you are here with me,
with me, with me, with me.

I’ll go with you,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them.
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer,
with you I shall experience them again.
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
with you I shall experience them again.
I’ll go with you,
I with you.

Andrea Bocelli - il Mare Calmo Della Sera

THE CALM EVENING SEA



I do not know
what fidelity is,
the reason for my song
which cannot resist
such sweet tears
that changed my love.

And if
also the rising of the sun
were to find us still together
please say no;
it also makes fools of the wise,
love, my love.

If within the soul
you were music,
if the sun were within you,
if you really were
within my soul,
then, yes, I could hear
in my silence
the calm evening sea.

But,
that image of you
so lost in my eyes
brought the truth to me;
it loves what it does not have,
love, my love.

If within the soul
you were music,
if the sun were within you,
if you really were
within my soul,
then, yes, I could hear
the calm evening sea,
in my silence
the calm evening sea.
