Checkmate

Are you home alone? cause I phoned To let you know your mates in a state Passed out, checkmate And heart to hearts only start When we drink in the dark I lied and said I love ya Oh but you know I always want to Reminisce about the high school phases In the textbook pages Haven't seen you hanging round for ages Not at all Now all we talk about is work and wages And the sex exchanges Cause the years are changing everything But we're still holding on to when we were young And down the line, everytime when you find The remnants of your mates, baby gates Wifed up, checkmate Remember nights at eighteenths when talk was so cheap And fighting was all you'd see He lied and said he loved ya Cause everybody wants to Reminisce about the high school phases In the textbook pages Haven't seen you hanging round for ages Not at all Now all we talk about is work and wages And the sex exchanges Cause the years are changing everything But we're still holding on to when we were young You see it happens every weekend And it's just the latest of a new trend Keep selling time that we never really spend Again and again Reminisce about the high school phases In the textbook pages Haven't seen you hanging round for ages Not at all Now all we talk about is work and wages And the sex exchanges Cause the years are changing everything But we're still holding on to when we were young
