I Can't Imagine

I can't stand the idea of a new school, with new people What if they all hate us? I'd die What if Gary, Jim, and Ted don't want to go with us? I would just die What if we don't get into the same sorority? Oh my god, I would really die! Since we started senior year, there's one thing on my mind What happens when the three of us leave high school far behind? What if I don't get admitted, and both of you do? Or if all that they have left is a dorm room for two? I would not get by No, I think I'd die, if I can't share college with you I can't imagine, I can't imagine Not having both of you there at my side I can't imagine No, I can't imagine, not being with you the rest of the ride Look, I know I still have Ted, who's in my head and heart But you are the most important thing in my life I can't imagine us ever being apart! Maybe Jim and I'll live together You can't do that, it's not right Besides the college won't let you Freshman have to stay in the dorms Well, we've got to have a plan So much to think about, sororities, our boyfriends! One thing just occurred to me, that fills me up with fear What happens if that Brenda Blair, is still around next year? What if every girl is pretty and looks like a star? Or if every girl has money, and drives her own car? Can we play the game when it's not the same as it is right here where we are? I can't imagine, I can't imagine Not being popular all my life through I can't imagine No, I can't imagine People won't love us, whatever we do All night long we've been adored, which makes me sorta proud Since that is the most important thing in this life I can't imagine, us being one of the crowd Right now, we're fine Right here, we're great Our world is how it's supposed to be I keep in line, my path is straight 'Cause I have both of you close to me Hurrying into the future (Right now, we're fine. Right here, we're great) But not letting go of the past (Our world is how it's supposed to be) Taking account of what matters (I keep in line, my path is straight) And makin' it last ('Cause I have both of you close to me) Imagine where we are (Right now, we're fine, right here, we're great. Our world is how it's supposed to be) Imagine what comes next (I keep in line, my path is straight, 'cause I have both of you close to me) I can't imagine (Uh-uh!) I can't imagine (No!) Everything perfect the way it is here I can't imagine No, I can't imagine How it could be any different next year Who we are The things we do Took four years to arrange Now this is the most important time in my life I can't imagine Oh! I can't imagine No! I can't imagine Why in the world it should change!
