Alma Maters 2022

Suns down last night of camp Packed bags scattered all around All the cubbies empty and clear Heartache felt in the air Here I stand on Grand Sing night with my friends by my side We're all singing, dancing, crying all together How could camp be over so soon where did the time go As tears stream down from my eyes, I say How could it be the time that we all have to say goodbye Summer memories soaring flying high How could it be the day, it feels like we just came Strong friendships that were made, the bond will never break My home away from home it feels like a different life Something special burning deep inside Agudah, Ruach Country One big family, for all eternity Can't sleep lying in bed Silence ringing in my head The emotions that I'm feeling inside Can't bare, starting to cry Here I stand on Grand Sing night with my friends by my side We're all singing, dancing, crying all together How could camp be over so soon where did the time go As tears stream down from my eyes, I say How could it be the time that we all have to say goodbye Summer memories soaring flying high How could it be the day, it feels like we just came Strong friendships that were made, the bond will never break My home away from home it feels like a different life Something special burning deep inside Agudah, Ruach Country One big family, for all eternity Sitting down late at night As camp's end slowly drifts into sight Pen in hand I begin to write Of summer months that changed my life The grounds quiet everyone's asleep I look out at a camp so unique Eleven summers each one surreal Creating bonds that last for years Look around together hand in hand A family in unity we stand Holding on as it fades away Can we have one more day So close your eyes this is the last time Cannot believe I'm saying goodbye Though leaving never apart For you'll always be, part of my life Standing up as the sun starts to rise Can't hold back I just begin to cry Nowhere else would I rather be But right here in Ruach Country Look around together hand in hand A family in unity we stand Holding on as it fades away Can we have one more day So close your eyes this is the last time Cannot believe I'm saying goodbye Agudah as I stand tonight Can't hold back as emotions soar high Holding on as it fades away Can I have one more day I close my eyes for this is the last time It can't be real I'm saying goodbye Though leaving never alone For I'll always be, an Agudah boy
