Graduation Songs

Home >> Graduation Songs

Most colleges and educational institutions carefully choose a good selection of graduation songs to play during the graduation ceremony.

Graduation day is such a special and emotional day for the individual.

The same applies to the music that you choose to play at your graduation party. You’ll want music that can relate to a variety of feelings:

• There will be a hint of melancholy as the graduate is leaving a massive chapter of his/her life behind and also saying farewell to so many friends. It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday by Boyz II Men would certainly relate to this feeling. Even Here’s to the Night by Eve 6 will leave many graduates misty-eyed thinking of some memorable moments with friend.
• There will also be feelings of excitement and hope for the future. I Believe I Can Fly by R. Kelly is ideal for promoting that feeling of pure inspiration for the future.

I have tried to give you as many songs as possible to let you find something that suits your occassion and taste.

Most Popular of All the Graduation Songs

Some of the opening lyrics are:

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day

  With ambition pushing forward
  Your dreams upon your shoulders
  
  

  Though impossible it seems
  It's time to just believe
  From here on out you're just getting older
  Pick up yourself you'll keep getting closer
  
  



• Blue Sky By Francesca Battistelli
  
  When you’re down and you’re out
  And you don’t think you have a friend
  When you’re lost in the doubt
  And you can’t see what’s around the bend
  
  

  Just hold on
  Don’t turn around
  Keep on walking
  Don’t lose heart
  ‘Cause I am here, I am here
  Wherever you are, wherever you are
  
  



• By Your Side By Tenth Avenue North

  I want you to know
  That I, I love you
  I'll never let you go
  
  



• Ready By Third day
  
  I'm ready for the winds to change

  I'm waiting for a song to sing
  I'm looking for a brand new thing
  I'm ready now to live a life that I believe

  Held by the hands of the Father
  We share His love and He leads us through
  
  
  
• The Power Of A Moment by Chris Rice
  
  What am I gonna be when I grow up?
  How am I gonna make my mark in history?
  And what are they gonna write about me when I’m gone?
  These are the questions that shape the way I think about whatmatters
  But I have no guarantee of my next heartbeat
  And my world’s too big to make a name for myself
  And what if no one wants to read about me when I’m gone?
  Seems to me that right now’s the only moment that matters
  


• Wait And See by Brandon Heath
  
  Still wondering why I’m here
  Still wrestling with my fear
  But oh, He’s up to something
  And the farther on I go
  I’ve seen enough to know
  That I’m, not here for nothing
  He’s up to something
  


• Don't Miss Now by Downhere
  
  You get bumped and bruised and worse
  For choosing the road less traveled
  You know the reward is rich
  If you persist through the darkest battles
  Open your eyes,
  Your prize is right before you, somehow
  Whatever you do, just don't miss now
  


• Move by Jason Gray
  
  Each time I step out on my own
  I wind up broken and alone
  But every time I get off track
  You are always there to call me back
  Always calling me back home
  

It only takes a little spark to get a fire goin'
I know the fire's in your heart, so go ahead and show it


[chorus]
Go - light it up - start a fire
Burn - let it burn - even higher


Like a city on a hill, we can light up the horizon
For miles and miles and miles - you can see the smoke is risin'
So go ahead and light the sky like a bonfire in the night
Let the fire keep burnin' hard - it can never be too bright


It only takes a little spark to get a fire goin'
I know the fire is in your heart, so go ahead and show it


Go - light it up - start a fire
Burn - let it burn - even higher


Go - light it up - start a fire
Burn - let it burn - even higher

People of all ages love to sing this hymn and it makes one of the better graduation songs:

Round the corner of the world I turn
more and more about the world I learn
all the new things that I see
you'll be looking at along with me

Chorus

As I travel through the bad and good
keep me travelling the way I should
where I see no way to go
you'll be telling me the way, I know

Chorus

Give me courage when the world is rough
keep me loving though the world is tough
leap and sing in all I do
keep me travelling along with you

Chorus

You are older than the world can be
you are younger than the life in me
ever old and ever new
keep me travelling along with you

Chorus

I'm Not Gonna Cry by Corey Smith

Sunday shoes, cap and gown
The whole town gathered around
Waited 18 years now it's all comin down to this.
I scanned the crowd and it fills my soul
My best friends all here in rows
No turning back, now its time to walk that line
This tassel is gonna turn
But when the moment passes by
We'll just walk away
Then slowly grow apart

But I'm not gonna cry, no
Not one sad or happy tear
I've waited my whole life
Now I'm gonna fly right outta here

It's a bittersweet goodbye, but I'm not gonna cry

Friday night, football games,
First loves and first heartbreaks,
It didn't matter who won or lost,
Only how we played,
Memories as good as gold,
Tearin' up those mountain roads,
Racin' out 53, to old georgetown,
Sure we made a little trouble,
But learned from every mistake,
So there's no regret,
We've done the best we could

So I'm not gonna cry, no
Not one sad or happy tear
I've waited my whole life
Now I'm gonna fly right outta here

These have been the best years of my life
So I'm not gonna cry

Its been a lonely, winding journey
And we've lost a few along the way
Still we've hung in there through the tribulations
Now its time to celebrate
Its our graduation day

So I'm not gonna cry
Not one sad or happy tear
I've waited my whole life
So I'm gonna fly right outta here

This has been the best day of my life
So I'm not gonna cry

Its a bittersweet goodbye, I'm not gonna cry

Another fantastic graduation songs is by Green Day. It is called "Good Riddance" or some people also know it as "Time of Your Life". Please enjoy this graduation songs lyrics below:


Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don’t ask why
It’s not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it’s worth
It was worth all the while
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life
