For my wonderful school years in Okinawa, Japan I wrote our class song.  We practised, recorded, and performed it.

Where are they now?

Soprano: Patty
Alto & guitar: Adrienne
Tenor: Robby
Flute: Diane
Piano: Anne

Sadly, Patty is no longer with us. I wrote a SONG in her memory.

To score this piece, I listened to the recording and captured my improvised introduction as accompaniment. The melody is easy to harmonise to. The piece begins in A minor but ends in C major.

Of the Class of 82

Words and Music by Anne Ku

1.

When I recall my life in song

So many things come into my mind.

Of all the dreams I've left behind

Few remain to echo on.

 
CHORUS We’ve done our share of winnin’

We’ve done our share of losin’

Of the class of 82 I’ll sing

But it’s Kubasaki I’ll be missin’

2. Twelve years ago we’d all begun

This journey to broaden our sphere

Through many a fight and many a tear

We emerged with so much done.

C H O R U S
3. We suffered, conquered, but came out strong

We regained all that’s gone astray

We boasted and bragged and had it our way

But too soon we know it’ll end not long.

C H O R U S
