Glee Wiki Awards Winner
Kurt, and Santana with Alumni and New Directions:
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand moments so dear
Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles
In laughter, in strife
In five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
A year in the life?
Kurt and Santana (with Alumni and New Directions):
How about (love?)
Puck (Puck, and Tina with Alumni and New Directions):
How about (love?)
Kurt and Santana (with Alumni and New Directions):
How about (love?)

Mercedes:
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
The life of a woman or a man?
Santana:
In truths that she learned
Kurt:
Or in times that he cried
Puck:
In bridges he burned
Tina:
Or the way that she died
Kurt, Puck, and Santana with Alumni and New Directions:
It's time now to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate, remember a year in the life of friends
Kurt, Puck, Santana, and Tina with New Directions (Mercedes):
Remember the love (Oh, you've got to, you've got to remember the love)
Remember the love (You know that love is a gift from above)
Remember the love (Share love, give love, spread love)
Measure in love (Measure, measure your life in love)
