Until Then

It’s as if the rivers flow upstream
The birds have now lost all there song
Nothing’s right in the world for me
For by your side’s where I belong

Until that day that we hold tight
There’s no replacement for real touch
The world will be in disarray
Because my heart, it aches so much

Now, rain that falls is salted tears
As sun’s now hidden by the clouds
Until you’re here to hold my hand
It’s only darkness that is allowed

Oh, I shall wait for endless days
Until you’re here, then ends the haze
