Checking In Lyrics

[00:00.02] We used to meet up at the lockers
[00:04.44] Now we're lucky if we squeeze in a few drinks on the holidays
[00:08.74] Weekends, playing soccer
[00:12.01] Now my friends all moved away and they're too busy for pick-up games
[00:16.95] And I know that the phone works both ways
[00:20.38] But maybe I'm just scared to confront how we all changed
[00:24.33] Had my head in the sand for so long where it felt safe
[00:28.36] That I just saw the sun for the first time in days
[00:31.75] Just checking in, hey, how you been?
[00:35.89] It's been too long, swear that I still exist
[00:39.72] I missed your call, it's no one's fault
[00:43.86] It was so much easier when we were kids
[00:47.27] So, just checking in
[00:49.16]
[00:55.35] (Just checking in)
[00:57.52]
[01:03.46] Heard you're getting married next month
[01:07.31] I remember when you met her, and you told me she was the one
[01:11.47] So thank you for the invite
[01:15.13] But I couldn't get away from work and I can't afford a flight
[01:19.70] And I know that the phone works both ways
[01:23.17] But maybe I'm afraid that it won't be like the old days
[01:27.25] Had my head in the sand for so long where it felt safe
[01:31.32] But I just saw the sun for the first time in days
[01:34.80] Just checking in, hey, how you been?
[01:38.85] It's been too long, swear that I still exist
[01:42.61] I missed your call, it's no one's fault
[01:46.67] It was so much easier when we were kids
[01:50.21] So, just checking in
[01:51.81]
[01:58.46] (Just checking in)
[02:00.09]
[02:07.38] The pendulum swings and the distance it brings
[02:11.09] Are you feeling it too? Or is it just me
[02:15.07] So I try to rewind to the place and the time where it all makes sense
[02:20.90] Tell me we're still friends
[02:24.13] Just checking in, hey, how you been?
[02:28.01] It's been too long, swear that I still exist
[02:31.92] I missed your call, it's no one's fault
[02:36.08] It was so much easier when we were kids
[02:39.70] Just checking in
[02:40.96] (The pendulum swings and the distance it brings)
[02:43.85] (Are you feeling it too, or is it just me?)
[02:47.85] Just checking in
[02:49.15] (So I try to rewind
[02:50.18] To the place and the time where it all makes sense)
[02:55.52] Just checking in
[02:57.62]
