It's the first day of September and I'm headed off to school
Leaving for a world that I don't know
Standing on the sidewalk with my backpack and my lunchbox
And even though I'm kinda scared I know it's time to go
You are in the window and even from a distance
I can see that tears are in your eyes
And even though I'm much too young to understand the moment
I can see you slowly waving goodbye
Ten years later on and it's the junior high school dance
I'm nervous for the night that's yet to be
And I look pretty goofy in my funky disco outfit
But you can see the young man that I'd soon grow up to be
You walk me to the door, I turn, looking for approval
You just smile and, once more, fix my tie
And in that silent moment I can see that you've been crying
And I can see you slowly waving goodbye
It's finally here: my wedding day and all the guests assembled
See me standing at the altar with my bride
And I am over-filled with so much joy and expectation
Of all the wonderful adventures we would soon share - side by side.
You and Dad are there I see you smiling
You couldn't hide it though I know you tried
I saw you wipe away a tear you thought I didn't notice
And I can see you slowly saying goodbye
It's darker now and we sit holding hands in this small room
Where you've lived alone these past few years
And I know that time is running out - I've known it for a while
But somehow that won't seem to stop the tears
And though your mind has faded, sometimes, when I least expect it
I can see a twinkle in your eye
So I just hold your hand and tell you that I love you
And I can see you slowly saying goodbye
It's the first day of September and I'm headed off to school
