The old games have ended, the last victory cry,
Still it's always hard to have to say goodbye.
To say we'll meet again, is nothing that is sure,
But our friendship means everything and will stay forever pure.
As the road to the future winds into the next day,
We think of all our laughter and the things we would say.
Keep us forever and a day within your heart,
Because the day will come when we're no longer apart.
Good luck and farewell to what the future brings,
To you and your success may the glories sing.
As we wait for you, we'll do it with a smile,
After all we hope, it'll only be a while.
Don't think that we'll fail to try to keep in touch,
After all we'll care and miss you very much.
When we're together, we'll play the old games once more,
But, of course, they'll be better, much better than before.
Chris,
You have been a terrific friend to all of us this year. We love you and wish you only the best as you pursue your dreams!
