Pair is the 3rd song on Ian McConnell’s 2022 album “Season 1”. it talks about him and someone from his past whom he was once extremely close with, and how he knows that despite having drifted away from each other they will always be there for each other.
[Verse 1]
We’re not the pair we used to be
When people think of you, they don’t always still think of me
We ended up in different scenes
I guess it turned out that you and I were after different things, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 1]
There was a time
When everybody thought that your hip was attached to mine
Out with each other every night
Jokes that only we were insidе
Now I’m lucky if I see you once a month
[Chorus]
We’ve grown, wе’ve changed for the better
I’m on your side even when we’re not together
I’m always here for you, I know you’re always there for me
Even if we’re not the pair we used to be
[Verse 2]
You named my house do you remember that?
Said she felt like a Margret, lived here more than your apartment
Game of Thrones and Jeopardy, getting high off Kenny’s weed
Write our way through broken hearts 3 or 4 or 5 days a week
[Pre-Chorus 2]
There was a time
We’d stand at shitty shows communicating with our eyes
Hating on melodies and rhymes
Like we knew everything
Now you live on the other end of town
[Chorus]
We’ve grown, we’ve changed for the better
I’m on your side even when we’re not together
I’m always here for you, I know you’re always there for me
Even if we’re not the pair we used to be
[Bridge]
And it’s not bad, it’s just different now
Catching up more than hanging out
But five minutes in
And we’re back to being us again
Two good and old and busy friends
[Chorus]
We’ve grown, we’ve changed for the better
I’m on your side even when we’re not together
I’m always here for you, I know you’re always there for me
Even if we’re not the pair we used to be
