Lyrics David Bowie – You’ve Been Around
Text:
Where’s the pain in the violent night?
I’m depressed by the grin
I stay over many years
I should have thought of that
For the love of the money
Like a black-hearted violin
It’s the nature of being
Like a black-hearted violin
It’s the nature of being
It’s too many lonely nights
I can’t tell bad from wrong
I can’t pass you by
Too exchanging
You’ve been around
But you’ve changed me
Where the flesh meets the spirit world
Where the traffic is thin
I slip from a vacant view
I should have thought of that
And the sound of tomorrow
Like a black-hearted vile thing
Like the silence of tension
It’s too many lonely nights
I can’t tell good from bad
I can’t pass you by
Too exchanging
You’ve been around
But you’ve changed me
You’ve been around
Can’t pass you by
You’ve been around
But you’ve changed me
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-change!
Too exchanging
You’ve been around
but you’ve changed me
You’ve been around
can’t pass you by
Too exchanging
You’ve been around
but you’ve changed me
You’ve been around
can’t pass you by
