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
