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...
