I've been the bottom of a class,
I've seen the weather take its toll.
I hid myself behind a mask,
Spent my whole life searching for home.
Some things were never meant to last,
Sometimes I wish I'd been nicer to you.
Yeah...
I've felt the sting of social class,
The kiss of mediocrity.
They say that this too shall pass,
Maybe there's something wrong with me.
I've seen the things that a mother will do,
Just to keep her babies alive.
You know I've been there a thousand times,
Through the lowest lows and the highest highs.
And the best advice that I could find,
Was I've been there.
'Cause I've been there.
I've been a role model and a friend,
I've been discarded in the end.
Note to all you battered wives,
Leave him alone you will survive.
There's some things you can get used to,
And some things that just burn you alive.
Yeah...
I've seen the ghost of Hollywood,
I've seen the beauty of Japan.
I saw my self-esteem fading,
When you let go of my hand.
Sometimes I wonder if all this confidence,
Is worth it in the end.
You know I've been there a thousand times,
Through the lowest lows and the highest highs.
And the best advice that I could find,
Was I've been there.
Oh 'cause I've been there.
Oh, well yeah I've been round this place.
There's been such amazing grace.
And through all of it there was love, love, love...
Love, love.
I couldn't look you in the eye when I told you goodbye,
'Cause I always thought that I'd see you again.
You know I've been there a thousand times,
Through the lowest lows and the highest highs.
And the best advice that I could find,
Was I've been there.
Oh you know I've been there a thousand times,
Through the lowest lows and the highest highs.
And the best advice that I could find,
Was I've been there.
'Cause I've been there.
Oh you know I've been there.
'Cause I've been there.
'Cause I've been there.
