THE POEM

“Aloha” has many meanings, and plenty speak to Blue;

Affection, peace, passion; these all apply to you.

 

Like our Hawaiian brothers, we create stories and songs,

And through these special moments, memories form forever long.

 

This is our island paradise, where legends come alive.

We may be Blue or Gold, but we are still one tribe.

 

And on this special night where we will come together,

Unfortunately, it is clear to see that half the tribe is better.

 

I mean, let’s be honest, it’s not really fair;

Gold Team—you winning is like Bubba growing hair.

 

Hawaiian Blue’s efforts are incredibly inspiring;

We can’t even be stopped by Bogard’s reckless driving.

 

Blue Team has reigned dominance throughout our long past,

And tonight we all know that this trend will not pass.

 

After tonight’s win you’ll all hopefully learn,

Your ropes only went down thanks to James Blackburn.

 

Now, I know that tonight, we have poked some fun,

But we all know, in the end we come together as one.

 

Just like the endless to-and-fro of the ocean tide;

Camp and our hearts, will be forever side by side.

 

Some stories have ended, while others have just begun;

This is the end of a chapter, and we’re writing another one.

 

While the time we have left is washing away,

I’ll never forget your light, guiding me on my way.

 

Footprints left in golden sands, seized by waves of crystal blue

As the sweeping tide comes in, I’m drawn closer into you.

 

As the night draws to a close and it all begins to unwind,

Remember we’re family and family means nobody gets left behind.

THE ALMA MATER

To the tune of “Best Days”

I see your face

I hold you tight

The sun shines through

For one last night

You guide me through

Our hearts unite

Where (1) we (1) shine (2,3)

You’re the light that guides me through (2,3)

 

Chorus

So hold me

With you by my side I can now see

Verse 2

I fear the day I’m not with you

As time spent here has gone too soon

You drift (1) a (1) way (2,3)

 

The flame begins to slowly die

I wonder if not by your side

Will dark (1) ness (1) stay (2,3)

 

Pre-Chorus

As dawn fades tonight (1)

I’ll keep you in my sight (2,3)

 

Chorus

So hold me

With you by my side I can now see

You’re the best part of me

Show me

Distance won’t keep us alone see

The sun shines brightest with you (1)

Thanks to the gold and the blue (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4)

 

Bridge

Boys: Your sun dries my tears (1)

All: Our love stays through the years (2,3)

 

Chorus

So hold me

With you by my side I can now see

You’re the best part of me

Show me

Distance won’t keep us alone see

The sun shines brightest with you (1)

Yeah, the sun shines brightest with you (1)

The gold sun sets to blue (1,2)

(Slow) I’ll always come back home to you
