I've Been Around

Curtain down

It's time to go

End of the story

End of the show

There's no need, it would seem in hangin' round

This lonely town

I played to win

I lost a few

I made the papers

And I've been old news

But when I'm done, let it be written down

I've been around

I've been a beggar

Down on your street

I've had a treasure

Laid at my feet

I played a hero

I've been a clown

I flew like an arrow

Close to the ground

So raise a glass

Clear the floor

I'll take the last dance

Then I'll find the door

And I'll smile, while the house lights go out

'Cause I've been around

I've been loved, I've been lost

I've been found

But I've been around

I've been around
