In These Halls (The Graduation Song)

[Verse 1]
So, tell me what did you learn all these years
Tell me what are you gonna take away from here
We spent four years growin' up together
And the time the it took felt like forever
We spent four years racin' to this day
Now we're wishing that we hadn't
Wished all that time away

[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're here, waitin' for our turn
As we wait, I'll tell you what I learned

[Chorus]
I learned how to laugh, I learned how to cry
I learned to enjoy every moment as it's passin' by
I learned how to live, I learned how to love
I learned how to work hard, never give up

[Post-Chorus]
And the rest is just luck
And I might have picked up a thing or two
From the books that I read
But don't tell anyone; I'll never admit that I did
But I learned that life begins outside these walls
Thanks for the memories that we had in these halls, ooh

[Verse 2]
So, tell me what's running through your mind right now
Tell me how, how we say goodbye to a town
We spent most of our lives growin' up in
Where we went to school and made our best friends
We spent four years tryin' to get out of this place
Now with time like an hourglass running out
There's not much time left to waste

[Pre-Chrous]
Now we're here, waitin' for our turn
As we wait, I'll tell you what I learned

[Chorus]
I learned how to laugh, I learned how to cry
I learned to enjoy every moment as it's passin' by
I learned how to live, I learned how to love
I learned how to work hard, never give up

[Post-Chorus]
And the rest is just luck
And I might have picked up a thing or two
From the books that I read
But don't tell anyone; I'll never admit that I did
But I learned that life begins outside these walls
Thanks for the memories that we had in these halls, ooh

[Outro]
So, tell me what did you learn all these years
Tell me what are you gonna take away from here
