Our Time Has Come

Submitted by a_ondria on June 3, 2008 - 09:38.

This year has come to an end
Like so many before
Only this time
We final walk out these doors

So eager to get out
Forgetting it’s the end
This could be the last time
We see each other
Ever again.

But we will always remember
The times we’ve shared
And when we go to a class reunion
It will remind us how much we all cared

We will always be friends
Deep in our hearts
Even though we could be a thousand miles
Apart

I stand here today
Thinking of everything we’ve done
And giggle when I think about
All the fun

I still can’t believe its here
This thing we’ve been counting down to
For all these years

So when we leave today
Promise not to forget
All these times we’ve shared
Even the ones we probably should regret

This year has come to an end
Like so many before
Only this time
We finally walk out the doors
