"this used to be my playground,
this used to be my childhood dream,
this used to be the place i ran to
whenever i was in need
of a friend.
why did it have to end,
and why do they always say
"don't look back,
keep your head held high"?
don't ask them why,
because life is short.
and before you know,
you're feeling old
and your heart is breaking.
"don't hold on to the past."
well that's too much to ask.
live and learn.
well the years they flew,
and we never knew.
we were foolish then,
we would never tire.
and that little fire
is still alive in me;
it will never go away.
can't say goodbye to yesterday.
no regrets
but i wish that you
were here with me.
well then there's hope yet.
i can see your face
in our secret place
you're not just a memory.
say goodbye to yesterday,
those are words i'll never say.
this used to be our playground,
this used to be our childhood dream,
this used to be the place we ran to,
the best things in life are always free,
wishing you were here with me."
An Alumni Site
Kathryn Duffy '04 is compiling information for an alumni site, which will appear here eventually. In the meanwhile, alumni who wish to receive updates about the team can sign up for the alumni mailing list (we promise not to solicit for donations) by emailing David.
If you want to purchase MIT Swimming & Diving t-shirts and suits, you can also email David. The cost for alumni is equal to the cost for team members. More information forthcoming.
