Been So Down (E. Beaumont) (Eric Blowtorch Songs, BMI)

Been so down since you left town since you left us all alone
Been so down since you left town since you left us on our own
Been so down since you left town so many years ago
Been so down since you left town, since you ain’t around no more

We’ve lost our manufacturing base
since we beheld your fascinating face
Empty houses all over the place
We’ve been laid to waste

Been so down since you left town since you left us all alone
Been so down since you left town since you left us on our own
Been so down since you left town so many years ago
Been so down since you left town, since you ain’t around no more

Christopher’s Club used to rock and swing
Your face lit up the place, floor to ceiling
but we’ve lost our beloved dancefloor star
Chris’s Club’s now a damn sports bar

Been so down since you left town since you left us all alone
Been so down since you left town since you left us on our own
Been so down since you left town so many years ago
Been so down since you left town, since you ain’t around no more

Wherever you’ve landed, we hope you can hear:
This town was so grand, kid, when you were so near
Tonight the sunset surprised us
Orange, deep blue, charcoal horizons
Startled by September dew, we remember you

Been so down since you left town since you left us all alone
Been so down since you left town since you left us on our own
Been so down since you left town so many years ago
Been so down since you left town, since you ain’t around no more

Been so down
Been so down
Been so down
