Quitting time,
Time to put it all away.
Say goodbye to friends,
Goodbye to memories,
Today is the final day.
We follow our own paths
Crossing others as we go,
All paths are winding,
We will meet again,
I truly do hope so.
New beginnings becoming ends,
Leaving us mourning,
Leaving us alone.
But every new beginning
Must start with one,
That has just come to a close.
It's closing time, quitting time,
I'll see you all again.
I wrote this the day of my high school graduation, before I ever heard that song by whats-their-name (spooky, cause I heard it the next morning driving home from the lock-in)…………anyway it was about the friends at school, and the friends I would be leaving behind at home because I was going away. Although I did use the same title. Before I heard the song, I had no title for it. I get a lot of crap about this one because people don't believe me. What reason do I have to lie about it?
