The Waifs - Since I`ve Been Around слова песни
Walking down the main street of the town where I was bornLooking at these things I`ve seen so many times beforeI take a deep breath, smile and kick a stone along the groundBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundThere`s comfort in the way that everything still looks the samePeople that I bump into; they call me by my nameIt almost feels as though I never even left this townBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundMy girlfriend lived on Hawdon Street – man was she a sightSometimes I would sneak into her bedroom late at nightNow she`s not there – I`m told her family long since left the townBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundYeah many of my friends found some other place they`d rather beBut I still know of one good mate, she gonna keep me companyI think I`ll gonna call her up, we`ll go and paint the townBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundI stopped on by her place, years ago I knew her well�Let`s go drink to old times at the Adelaide Hotel`She said it`s twenty years now since they shut that old pub downBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundYeah but the hospital`s still standing, down over by the river shoreThat`s the place where I took my first breath, so many years beforeI take a deep breath now and feel my chest begin to poundBeen so long, since I`ve been aroundNow I`m lying by the river feeling lazy in the shadeChildren shout and splash about in water where I playedAnd I`m thinking I could stay a while, maybe settle downBeen so long, since I`ve been around
