Laid awake throughout the night   Today the school's so loud   And now it's all so quiet   I plan to pack light   Cause tomorrow we'll fly   Taking off to a place   A land that's not so far away       The boat above our heads for the walk to the shore   As feelings of dread soak the length of the oar   Connecticut hillsides surround the clouds soar   Dazed to the signs   I think back to times when gender crossed me       Miss all those Christmasses   And the once careless Autumns       Though there's space betwixt us which   Dissolves here round when the fog clears       As we crept through the race   Old friends would line the banks   Cheering on as they played   Screaming all the lovely names   Then they'd start to file away   Come dust the time to rage       The boat above our heads for the walk to the van   As luncheon awaits us while all the girls tan   And social engagements commence by the sand   Now our day is complete   We faced defeat, but felt the cool breeze       Follow our dreams   And hold the lake in such dear regards   Against the best we thrusted   But the justice came when the bow touched
