Been around enough to know I'm broken
Been around enough to know nothing’s sure
Been around enough to be a little grateful
Been around enough to miss my heart when it was pure

Been around enough to know the story
Been around enough to know how it ends
Been around enough to tell the smoke from the mirror
Been around enough to tell the true from fair-weather friends

I’ve been around enough to dry some tears
Been around enough to trace the years upon my face
This is the place I'm happy to be

Been around enough to know
That winter is gonna guarantee a little spring
Cage a singin’ bluebird
And you’ll never never ever get that bird to sing
Been around enough to know I'm lonesome
Been around enough to know it’ll pass
If I give it time and maybe open my heart
Been around enough to know the die is never cast

Carrying around the weight of a lifetime of dreaming
Never really seen the end of the road
If losers never quit, then I'm thoroughly equipped
To keep on keeping on

Been around, 'round, been around
