The Graduation Song Lyrics - Dave Matthews Band

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

Watch Janelle Monáe's Sci-Fi film 'Dirty Computer' 

These years have passed 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 

Photos 

These are the days of your life 

And don't let them pass 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
