The Waifs - Since I've Been Around lyrics
Walking down the Main Street of the town where I was born Looking at these things i've seen so many times before Take a deep breath, smile, kick a stone along the ground Been so long since i've been around There's comfort in the way that everything still looks the same People that I bump into, they call me by my name It almost feels as though i never left this town Been so long since i've been around And my girlfriend she lived on Hawdon Street and man was she a sight Sometimes I would sneak into her bedroom late at night Now she's not there and i'm told her family long since left that town Been so long since i've been around Yeah many of my friends found some other place they'd rather be But I still know one good mate, she gonna keep me company I think i'm gonna call her up, go and paint the town Been so long since i've been around I stopped on by her place, years ago I knew her well Said lets go drink to old times at the Adelaide Hotel She said its 20 years now since they shut that old Pub down Been so long since i've been around They've got the hospital still standing down over by the river shore That's the place where I took my first breath so many years before I take a deep breath now and feel my chest begin to pound Been so long since I've been around And now i'm lying by the river feeling lazy in the shade And children splash and shout about in water where I played And i'm thinking I could stay a while or maybe settle down Been so long since i've been around |
