The last seconds’ draw near,
The final goodbye is almost here.
The moment we leave this building tonight
We’ll have to go our separate ways
And on our new wings take flight.

Take care of yourself
So when we meet again you’ll be whole.
Watch where the paths you take go
So you can come back again.

This chapter in our life ends
As our life continues to unfold.
Learning your talents is like finding gold.
Cherish its value-
It’s important to you.
You have to go your own way
Like I must now today.

I’ll take care of myself
So when we meet again I’ll be whole.
I’ll watch where the paths I take go
So I can come back again.

We’ve known each other for so long
That separation may feel weird-
Even a bit wrong,
But we’ll be okay.
We’ll meet again someday.
It might be an empty promise
To you but I can see it’s meaning
We’ll change, move n, grow-up
But we’ll be the same inside.
Some things we just can’t hide.

So lets not hide.

We’ll take care of ourselves
So when we meet again we’ll be whole.
We’ll watch where the paths we take go
So we can come back again.
