The sun now gone and fast asleep,
we listen to the quiet,
reflect upon what’s passed, and keep
our distance from its riot.
The river bed is rough and deep;
it’s silly to deny it.
The road ahead is tough and steep,
but still we mean to try it.

We’ve turned the corners that we’ve turned,
learned the lessons that we’ve learned.
burned the bridges that we’ve burned,
earned the colours that we’ve earned.

We’ve grown the flowers that we’ve grown,
shown the talents that we’ve shown,
blown the money that we’ve blown,
known the people that we’ve known.

We took chances
that we shouldn’t,
tried to do things
that we couldn’t,
yet did nothing
that we wouldn’t
do again.

We’ve sought the answers that we’ve sought,
taught the classes that we’ve taught,
fought the battles that we’ve fought,
caught the moments that we’ve caught.

We took chances
that we shouldn’t,
tried to do things
that we couldn’t,
yet did nothing
that we wouldn’t
do again.
