Leaving
Everyone's excited to be leaving
We thought this day would never come,
Eighteen years of laughs and make-believing.
At last it's time to run away from home.
But we will have to say goodbye
To all our friends
The next time we meet it will be noisy
As we tell each other who we've become.
So the only way to go is to just go
Perhaps you think I oversimplify
Got to make yourself take the leap
Trust yourself to fly.
Everyone's excited to be leaving
As if we can't grow up until we part
Naively we agree there'll be no grieving-
We embrace as though we know each others heart
