Graduation
Graduation by Vitamin C
And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon and there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels
(Chorus)
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, come whatever
We will still be, friends forever
So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money
When we look back now, will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, come whatever
We will still be, friends forever
We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, come whatever
We will still be, friends forever

中文歌词
毕业
我们曾整夜讨论以后的生活
不知25岁时我们会在哪里
我坚持认为时代不会更替
坚持认为事物会亘古不变
但当今年离开,我们就不再回来
不会再呆在一起,因为我们会过着不同的生活
如果你有需要讲的话
最好现在就说吧,因为你不可能再多有一天
因为我们在往前走,不能放慢脚步
记忆就像在播放无声电影
我经常想起六月的那个夜晚
我对爱还了解太少
但它又来得太快
我和你在一起
我们获得了真正的自信
呆在家里和我在电话里聊天
我们兴奋,也很害怕
自嘲自乐,认为生活不公
这就是全部的感受
当生活继续,我们记得
所有我们在一起的时光
当生活在改变,但无论发生什么
我们仍然永远是朋友
如果我们身居要职、赚得很多钱
当我们回顾今天
是否我们的玩笑仍然有趣?
是否仍然记得我们在学校里学到的一切?
是否还试着触犯每一个条例?
是否聪明的小鲍比会成为股票经纪人?
我们能否找到不会影响我们晒成棕褐色的工作?
我坚持,坚持认为这并不是再见
坚持认为已到了展翅高飞的时候
这就是全部的感受
是否我们会考虑未来就像我们考虑现在?
是否我们在社会上能挺下来?
是否我们能获得某种成功?
我猜我原以为这永远都不会结束
但突然好像我们都已经长大成人
是否过去会像影子一样跟随我们?
是否当我离开这个地方,这些记忆会褪色?
我坚持,坚持认为这并不是再见
坚持认为已到了展翅高飞的时候

听我之我见
昨天还是兴奋的大一学生,如今就要背上行囊,离开这个熟悉的城市;昨天还是和朋友嬉笑,转眼就要明日天涯。直到毕业才发现很多事都没有去做,很多的话还没和重要的人说,还有很多很多.......
花了四年才喜欢的城市,如今就要离开。喧闹的街市,平静的湖水,也许是要到离开的时候才会真正去体会它的美好吧,以后一定会想起的吧,毕竟在这里留下那么多美好的回忆......同住了四年的朋友,曾经为小事争吵过,也曾一起开怀大笑过,曾以为离别时一定会很不舍,一定会抱在一起痛哭一场。然而,其实就像散场电影,大家无声的告别,没有泪水,没有不舍,我们送走一个又一个,然后各自生活,继续在不同的线条上拼搏向前。也许这些线条不会再有交点,但是一起走过的岁月一定照耀着我们,温暖着我们,在某个雨夜一定会从记忆的匣子里漫出来,润湿我们的双眼。只希望08年毕业的同学一路走好,在以后的道路上一帆风顺。
