Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sunday shoes, cap and gown The whole town gathered around Waited 18 years now it's all comin' down to this I scanned the crowd, and it fills my soul My best friends all here in rows No turning back, now it's time to walk that line This tassel is gonna turn But when the moment passes by We'll just walk away Then slowly grow apart [Chorus] But I'm not gonna cry, no Not one sad or happy tear I've waited my whole life Now I'm gonna fly right outta here It's a bittersweet goodbye But I'm not gonna cry [Verse 2] Friday night, football games First loves and first heartbreaks It didn't matter who won or lost Only how we played Memories as good as gold Tearin' up those mountain roads Racin' out 53 to old Georgetown Sure, we made a little trouble But learned from every mistake So there's no regret We've done the best we could [Chorus] So I'm not gonna cry, no Not one sad or happy tear I've waited my whole life Now I'm gonna fly right outta here These have been the best years of my life So I'm not gonna cry [Bridge] It's been a lonely, winding journey And we've lost a few along the way Still, we've hung in there through the tribulations Now it's time to celebrate It's our graduation day [Chorus] So I'm not gonna cry, no no (I'm not gonna cry) Not one sad or happy tear (Not one sad or happy tear) I've waited my whole life (I've waited my whole life) No, I'm gonna fly right outta here (I'll fly right outta here) This has been the best day of my life So I'm not gonna cry It's a bittersweet goodbye I'm not gonna cry
