It's that time of the year again! Graduation! The happiest time for those graduating, the saddest for their parents. Of course, with every graduation comes a song that these students will never forget. Your graduation song should be one that describes your entire graduating class along with all the memories of the past 4 years. Over time, many songs have come our that fit graduation perfectly, like these!

1. "I Lived" by OneRepublic

Hope when you take that jump
You don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises
You built a wall
Hope when the crowd screams out
They're screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay

2. "Today My Life Begins" by Bruno Mars

I will break these chains that bind me, happiness will find me
Leave the past behind me, today my life begins
A whole new world is waiting its mine for the taking
I know I can make it today my life begins

3. "I'll Always Remember You" by Hannah Montana

But yesterday's gone. We gotta keep moving on
I'm so thankful for the moments, so glad I got to know you
The times that we had I'll keep like a photograph
And hold you in my heart forever
I'll always remember you

4. "Wherever I Go" by Miley Cyrus

So I'm moving on
Letting go
Holding on to tomorrow
I've always got the memories while I'm finding out who I'm gonna be
We might be apart but I hope you always know
You'll be with me wherever I go
Wherever I go

5. "Hero" by Mariah Carey

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away, hey yeah
Hold on
There will be tomorrow

In time you'll find the way

6. "Whenever You Remember" by Carrie Underwood

Whenever you remember times gone by
Remember how we held our heads so high
When all this world was there for us
And we believed that we could touch the sky
Whenever you remember, I'll be there

7. "Graduation Song" by Vitamin C

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
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound

8. "Through the Years" by Kenny Rodgers

Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
I've never been afraid
I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed
Right here with you
Through the years

9. "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish

10. "Congratulations" by Post Malone

I dreamed it all ever since I was young
They said I wouldn't be nothing
Now they always say congratulations
Worked so hard, forgot how to vacation
They ain't never had the dedication
People hatin', say we changed and look we made it
Yeah, we made it

11. "Home" by Daughtry

I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.

12. "Farewell" by Rihanna

And I know you're going somewhere to make a better life
I hope that you find it on the first try
And even though it kills me
That you have to go
I know it'll be sadder
If you never hit the road

13. "Gift of a Friend" by Demi Lovato

The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are
When you open your heart
And believe in
The gift of a friend
