For five years we’ve been friends
How stupid was I to think this wouldn’t end
When do I say goodbye?

True friendships have been made
I hope the memories never fade
Do I have to say goodbye?

Yearbooks are shared and I must sign
All my feelings don’t fit on one line
How do I say goodbye?

They put on cap and gown
I should be happy but it makes me frown
Why can’t I say goodbye?

One by one, they walk across
I feel lonely, at a loss
Why do I have to say goodbye?

Boxes and vehicles are fully packed
It’s time go and I’ve finally cracked
All I can say is… goodbye.
