Hey!!!! You're the kid from down the street |
|
The one we used to greet |
|
And we're glad that it turned out good |
|
We're pleased that you've done well |
|
But maybe you should tell |
|
Us, in person, like real friends should |
|
Because it doesn't take that much |
|
And then you find you're out of touch |
|
With the people that you called friends |
|
So maybe now it's time |
|
To drop them all a line, yeah |
|
It's time to make amends |
|
You shouldn't take it for granted |
|
The roots that you planted will be fine |
|
You should make it a mission |
|
To go back and check from time to time.... |
|
Break out play about |
|
But don't leave out |
|
People where you started it from [x2] |
|
It didn't take that much |
|
To say you'd keep in touch |
|
But how many people do? |
|
They're the one's who put you there |
|
Doesn't mean you have to care |
|
I guess that bit's up to you |
|
But they're the best days of your life |
|
The time you learn your wrongs from right |
|
No money can buy you those |
|
So hold on to your past |
|
You gotta make those friendships last |
|
Coz the good time comes and goes |
|
You shouldn't take it for granted |
|
The roots that you planted will be fine |
|
You should make it a mission |
|
To go back and check from time to time.... |
|
You're growing up |
|
You're getting old |
|
Don't wanna be left |
|
In the cold |
|
A different place |
|
A newer face |
|
You're sinking fast |
|
Without a trace |
|
It only takes |
|
A little while |
|
To call 'em up |
|
And make 'em smile.... |
|
You shouldn't take it for granted |
|
The roots that you planted will be fine |
|
You should make it a mission |
|
To go back and check from time to time... |
|
Break out play about |
|
But don't leave out |
|
People where you started it from [x2] |
|
You shouldn't take it for granted |
|
The roots that you planted will be fine |
|
You should make it a mission |
|
To go back and check from time to time... |
|
OI! Break out play about |
|
But don't leave out |
|
People where you started it from [x4] |
