Sponge Roots
[Verse 1] You're the kid from down the street, The one we used to greet, & We're glad that it turned out good, Were pleased that you done well, But maybe you could tell, Us in person like real friends should. Because it doesn't take that much, & You then you find your outta touch, With the people you call friends, So maybe now it's time, You should drop them all a line, Yeah it's time to make amends. [Bridge] You shouldn't take it for granted, The roots that you've planted, Will be fine, You should make it a mission, To go back & check from time to time. [Chorus] Break out, Play about, But don't leave out, People that you started it from. Break out, Play about, But don't leave out, People where you started it from. [Verse 2] It didn't take that much, To say you'd keep in touch, But how many people do? There the ones that got you there, Doesn't mean you have to care, I guess that is up to you. They're the best days of your life, The time you learn to run/ to write, No money could buy you those, So hold on to your past, You've gotta make those friendships last, Coz the good time comes & goes! [Bridge] [Chorus x 2] [Solo] [Verse 3] Growin' up, Getting old, Don't wanna be, Left in the cold. A different place, A newer face, Conceal the past, Without a trace. It only takes, A little while, To call them up, & Make 'em a smile! [Bridge] [Chorus x 2]
