Graduation Trip

It was so long ago
 That feels so strange to say
 How does 18 years ago
 Seem just like yesterday
 A hundred kids from around the world
 On a ship to the great unknown
 Two boys for every girl
 You had never been away from home
 You were drinking something really green
 Hopping around like a grasshopper
 I was sipping diesel gasoline
 Then I threw up on the mezzanine
 I wonder if it ever crosses your mind
 'Cause I'm afraid it's something I dwell on all of the time
 I hear your doing amazing, and
 Believe me that makes me smile
 But I hope you think of me every once in a while
 We watched the stars shine
 Ate chicken by the slot machines
 I was with a friend of mine
 He got into your roommate's jeans
 We danced to Aerosmith
 And then we watched the sun appear
 I took a bracelet from your wrist
 You took an earring from my ear
 You twisted one last twirl
 Then kissed me so fucking hard
 And all at once our friends would leave
 Our hair tangled in the ocean breeze
 You told me you loved me
 I asked you if you were sure
 You said you thought so
 And then I said that I loved you too
 I wonder if it ever crosses your mind
 'Cause I'm afraid it's something I dwell on all of the time
 I hear your doing amazing, and
 Believe me that makes me smile
 But I hope you think of me every once in a while
 Georgia girl meets Texas boy
 Place and time so far away
 Like Leonardo Di Caprio
 But our ship sank a different way
 A lifetime in four short days
 Said goodbye and we never look back
 A few letters always ended the same
 I love you, did you know that?
 I wonder if it ever crosses your mind
 'Cause I'm afraid it's something I dwell on all of the time
 I hear your doing amazing, and
 Believe me that makes me smile
 But I hope you think of me every once in a while
 Yeah I hope you think of me every once in a while
