Class Song-Adieu
(Tune—I Just Kissed Your Picture
Goodnight)
(Words by Peggy Phelps and
Mary Cornelia Beck)
We’re met here as our school life ends
To sing a last song for our friends;
Our high school days with you here
Were full of happiness.
Though we’ll not meet together
In this our school.
You’ll know we’re not really apart.
For we’re still in each other’s heart;
So ’til the future when we
Our friendships renew
We’ll say to you our fondest adieu.
