Here We are, for the last time, a whole, Considered now as a class But once we're out, it's finished- This will just be a time of the past. Silently now, we look at each other And remember the fun that we've had. We'll laugh when we think about good times, But cry when remembering the sad. We leave our footprints in the sands of time But they'll soon be washed away; We'll just become commonpeople again- We've had our glory day. We're totally free from here on out Independent and on our own. We'll learn the lessons that Life will teach As others before us have done. Our lives are just beginning now The road of life's straight ahead. The last minute instructions are given There's nothing left to be said.
