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 hanging 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, and 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
