it's that time

to say goodbye. thanks semisonic for lyrics to wrap this up.

Closing time
Open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time
Turn all of the lights on over every boy and every girl
Closing time
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here

Closing time
Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
Closing time
This room won't be open till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end

we are but a short one hundred eight day blip on their lives. one hundred eighty days in the span of a lifetime is nothing. you never know who will remember you and who will not. sorry to most of my teachers...i don't remember you. those one hundred eight days were but a small speck on my life. time will tell.

now it's the end in the beginning.

  1. b-love the lyrics and love even more that you are posting. Hope you enjoy getting the chance to collect thought in writing, and just think how it'll help you connect to your kids and their work in writers' notebooks next year. :)
    Happy summer!

  2. Well, thank you for planting that song in my head! It is true, we are a blip...but it's a blip we can't live without! I always love your voice -it is crystal clear in your writing!
