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

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

e#

These are the days of your life

e#

e#

And don't let them pass you by

  e#

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

2x ----

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
