Leaving for the Summer
aka: The song that makes everybody cry
(2001 version)

Summer’s fast approaching
How time just seems to fly
But school is almost over
And it’s time to say good-bye
Some are staying here
Others going far away
I can’t believe it’s already May
I can’t believe it’s already May

From the beach of California
To Midwest Kansas City
The Isle of Taiwan
To Papua New Guinea
Topeka to Nevada
From Joplin to Grove
Each one must go to his own
Yet apart we are never alone

Though we’re leaving for the summer
We’ll always be friends
And we’ll be back together
When the school year begins
And though a lot can happen
And some may not return
We’ll never forget what we’ve learned
No we’ll never forget what we’ve learned

Though we’re leaving for the summer
Our friendship will stay
For we are one in Jesus
And they can’t take that away
We’ll always have the memories
Of everything we’ve done
And we’ll stand together as one
Yes we’ll stand together as one

And even though we’ll be apart
For who knows how long
We’ll all be back together
Where we really belong
And though we wish it could be
As it has always been
We don’t want these last days to end
But we’ll all be together again
Cause we’ll always have heaven
We’ll always have heaven

We don’t want these last days to end
But we’ll all be together again
Cause we’ll always have heaven
