I know you're moving on
To bigger and better places,
To new beginnings and new people
With new minds and new faces.
Dr. Seuss famously once said,
"Oh the places you will go",
And oh that I do know.
It's a big, frightening, scary,
Beautiful, wondrous, exciting world out there
With all its bright sights and lights
And sounds resounding in the air.
Definitely be wary but
No need to be overly worried.
We've all got to make the jump
At some time or at some certain point,
And every one of us has to make it
Each in our own individual way.
So don't be afraid
That you could be doing it wrong,
It's not worth the worry because
Really
Life Isn't That Long.
Get on board and go with the flow,
Or pick your direction and go
And see where the beating of your drum takes you.
The beauty in the journey is that you never truly know
Where those winds and whims will blow you.

I know you're moving on
To bigger and better places,
To new beginnings and new people
With new minds and new faces.

Beautiful, wondrous, exciting world out there
With all its bright sights and lights
And sounds resounding in the air.

No need to be overly worried.
We've all got to make the jump

And every one of us has to make it

So don't be afraid

Get on board and go with the flow,
Or pick your direction and go
And see where the beating of your drum takes you.
