Graduation, an accomplishment, be proud
And when you hear "dub 10", get loud
It's the ending of a long haul
But worth it, so stand up tall
We'll near the stage, tears in our eyes
Not looking forward to all the goodbyes
We get our diplomas, shake hands, and smile
Seeing that all these years were worthwhile
In our blue and white caps and gowns
We remember all the sights, the sounds
Friends made, and all the laughter in class
Teachers that guided us, to help us pass
We've been through so much, but we're here
We'll remember this night, so clear
Out here we are, a sea of white and blue
Past all the things that we've been through
Together, we've made it to the end
Good luck but always remember, class of 2010!
Know we were given the strong foundation
To move on from this night of graduation
To turn our tassels, with confidence, so grand
And walk off the stage, and into life's hands
May 2010
