You`ve Been Around — текст песни (David Bowie)

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

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
