Until Then



Until Then
by Max Burchett

Listen free to new pop song on SoundCloud based on lyrics of this “Until Then” poem
https://soundcloud.com/maxburchett/until-then

Through the years and years,
what a life it has been.
Together fighting for
what we believe in.
And we are still standing,
still believing.
Never looking back, we are still on track,
on the road again.
Until then…

Until then,
we are not alone.
Wherever we are goin’
on roads unknown.
In spirit higher and higher,
together we are soaring.
Hand in hand we are going.
Until then…

I will remember you
and in the end I know we will make it through.
As time leads us on from here,
I will remember you.
We are always friends,
on the road again.
Until then…
