On the day you graduate Take a little- it's never too late On the day you graduate You won't turn around There are voices in the walls Your parents' footsteps echo down the halls I guess we're lucky after all You won't turn around And the words you hold inside keep em close to you The words you hold inside I'm gonna lose you, and i'm gonna need you tomorrow Will you be the same? Right here tonight you and I know we might need something This bright not to fade away I'm gonna lose you, and I'm gonna need you tomorrow To help me to believe What I know today On the day you graduate Gonna stand in tall grass, and catch what you may On the day you graduate You won't turn around And the words you hold inside I'm gonna lose you, and i'm gonna need you tomorrow Will you be the same? Right here tonight you and I know we might need something This bright not to fade away I'm gonna lose you, and I'm gonna need you tomorrow To help me to believe What I know today Keep em close to you I'm gonna lose you, and i'm gonna need you tomorrow Will you be the same? Right here tonight you and I know we might need something This bright not to fade away And I'm gonna lose you, and I'm gonna need you tomorrow To help me to believe What I know today On the day you graduate You won't turn around
