Lyrics
Year one started
Year one began
When I was just a boy
At a young age
By March we departed
By March, something significant happened or changed
And it drained all my joy
It caused a loss of happiness
Year two taught me
In the second year, a lesson was learned
Not to fall in love
To avoid falling in love
It's a rabbithole of misery
Love leads to profound sadness
So boy don't you push your luck
Advice to avoid taking chances in love
I've been waiting
Anticipation and waiting for something
My whole life for this
Achieving something long-awaited or desired
Walking on the quad this morning
Recalling a specific moment
My name is on their list
Being recognized or acknowledged
I've been hoping
Having expectations or desires
I'd make it this far
Reaching a significant milestone
You graduated college
Referring to graduation from college
Boy you are a star
Complimenting someone for their achievement
Do do do uh
Reiteration of the appreciation and celebration for the person's success
Do do do ohh
-Do do do uh
-Boy you are a star
-Do do do uh
-Do do do ohh
-Do do do uh
-Boy you are a star
-Year three brought me
The third year brought experiences
The days of my life
Significant moments that added meaning
Made me make a difference
Contributed positively to life
And made me feel alright
Feeling content or okay
Year four hurt me
Fourth year brought pain
For it's the last goodbye
Parting ways and feeling hurt
Just like all good things
Good things come to an end
In time it will die
Everything eventually fades away
I've been waiting
Reiteration of waiting and hoping for success, akin to earlier verses
My whole life for this
-Walking on the quad this morning
-My name is on their list
-I've been hoping
-I'd make it this far
-You graduated college
-Boy you are a star
-It's time for a change
It's time for change, a desire to shift things
Let's rearrange
Proposing a rearrangement of current circumstances
What we have today
Expressing determination to progress
Boy I'm on my way
Moving forward toward a goal
I look back to the years
Reflecting on the past
That led me here
Recognizing the journey that led to the present
Those I won't change
Respecting past experiences as they shaped today
They made today
Recognizing the impact of past events on the present
I've been waiting
Reiteration of waiting, hoping, and achieving success, similar to earlier verses
My whole life for this
-Walking on the quad this morning
-My name is on their list
-I've been hoping
-I'd make it this far
-You graduated college
-Boy you are a star
-Do do do uh
Reiteration of admiration and support for the individual's success
Do do do ohh
-Do do do uh
-I gave you my all
-Do do do uh
-Do do do ohh
-Do do do uh
-Boy you'll go far
-Oh you'll go far
Reassurance about a bright future
Wherever you wanna go
Encouragement to pursue any desired path
We'll take you far
Commitment to support and aid in achieving goals
