Dave Matthews Band - The Graduation Song lyrics

Hoping for a new beginning To take me away from my surroundings So I can finally say goodbye Wondering what'll become of us When we are all old and gray And this time that we've spent together Was well worth our wait Think of the fun that we had Not caring until the next morning It feels so good to go through life With your eyes half open We are all one and the same We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters And most of all friends These years have pa**ed us by so fast It seems like we never got the chance To realize how good life really was And let the moment last And it feels like it was only yesterday When we walked into this place And said I can't wait till I get out of here And now as we walk down this aisle With four years all rolled up in a scroll, you can't help but think Hey, Where did the time go We are all one and the same We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters And most of all friends Hold on to your memories Hold on to those little things And I hope you receive as much as you get Cause when you die they're the only things That you can take to your grave These are the days of your life And don't let them pa** you by Cause you never know when you might take your last breath And so take a deep one tonight Good friends we had along the way And good friends that didn't make it to where we stand today But we all know that they're looking down on us And even though their lives were cut short We still remember the little thing that made us laugh about them And do you remember when and where did you meet them? We are all one and the same We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters And most of all friends Hold on to your memories Hold on to those little things And I hope you receive as much as you get Cause when you die they're the only things That you can take to your grave And as we approach this final day Where we all will go our separate ways So go hug and kiss your friends And say goodbye to them
