Since I've Been Around Lyrics

Artist: The Waifs
Album: Up All Night

Walking down the main street of the town where I was born
Looking at these things I€™ve seen so many times before
I take a deep breath, smile and 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 even left this town
Been so long, since I€™ve been around

My girlfriend lived on Hawdon Street €" man was she a sight
Sometimes I would sneak into her bedroom late at night
Now she€™s not there €" I€™m told her family long since left the 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 of one good mate, she gonna keep me company
I think I€™ll gonna call her up, we€™ll 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
€˜Let€™s go drink to old times at the Adelaide Hotel€™
She said it€™s twenty years now since they shut that old pub down
Been so long, since I€™ve been around

Yeah but the hospital€™s 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

Now I€™m lying by the river feeling lazy in the shade
Children shout and splash about in water where I played
And I€™m thinking I could stay a while, maybe settle down
Been so long, since I€™ve been around
