Check Your Six

All i wanted was fun and games
But you made it something more
I requested nothing from our encounter
But you made everything extreme

Now I`m lost in your translation
Of the signs and hints I never gave
I let the good times roll on
But you made the river grow

A fly became a starship to you
And the sun was never closer
But you forgot to check your six
Where I lay cold in your shadow

You held my hand and smiled
Did it feel like you grasped eternity
I tried to be the breeze
But around you I where a hurricane

How is it possible not to see
That I only wanted, not to be
The storm growing on your ocean
When there never was a wind

A fly became a starship to you
And the sun was never closer
But you forgot to check your six
Where I lay cold in your shadow

I really like the sound of the repeated lines

"But you forgot to check your six
Where I lay cold in your shadow"

Sorry to be a nerd, but what the heck does "check your six" mean?

A very sad write, made my heart bleed, but I must say, that in life, rarely do things go according to our plans my friend....Checking my six every time now!lol but doubt it will make a difference! Smiling at you, Tai
