[Intro] Just checking You alright? [Verse 1] I know when your appointment is I know which day to call I know when you say you're fine You don't always mean it all I notice when the light's still on I notice when it's not I keep the little things in mind The things that others forgot [Pre-Chorus] I don't remember being asked I just remember becoming the one The one who'd notice The one who'd call The one who'd check when no one had [Chorus] So I check in I check back I keep an eye I keep track Did you get there? Did you eat? Did they call? What did they say? Somewhere everybody learned I'd notice anyway And somewhere in the noticing So did I [Verse 2] There is love inside attention There are people worth the time There are calls I want to make And hands I want inside of mine I don't want to care less deeply I don't want to turn away But I started carrying tomorrow Before we'd finished with today [Pre-Chorus] If something changed I'd catch it If something slipped I'd know If somebody needed somebody I was already on my way [Chorus] So I check in I check back I keep an eye I keep track Did you get there? Did you eat? Did they call? What did they say? Somewhere everybody learned I'd notice anyway And somewhere in the noticing So did I [Bridge] What happens if I don't check? Does something fall because I rested? If I miss the call If I don't know Am I still someone you can count on? Can I love you without watching? Can I care without standing guard? If I put tomorrow down tonight Does that mean I've gone too far? [Final Chorus] I can check in I can call I can still be someone you can count on I can notice I can care Without believing I must always be there Love can still be love When I don't know everything I can keep what caring gave me Without carrying everything [Outro] Just checking You alright? Actually I'll call tomorrow
