Until We Meet

Hard rock with cinematic country color; brushed snare, thumping upright bass, swelling slide guitar, pedal steel harmonics, piano arpeggios; gritty male baritone with restrained phrasing; room-mic bleed, analog tape saturation, short plate reverb; 92 BPM half-time groove with a verse-to-chorus build

[Verse 1] I still look for your chair In the quiet of dusk Where the evening leans in And the old room turns to rust I listen for laughter That used to fill the space Like a cup on the table Like the light on your face [Chorus] It’s not goodbye It’s until we meet I hold your light In the steps I keep It’s not goodbye Just a little while (I’ll find you there) In the end of miles [Verse 2] I still hear your hello In the hum of the breeze In the dark green hush Of the pine trees We miss every story Every word, every phrase That guided our hearts Through the longest days [Chorus] It’s not goodbye It’s until we meet I hold your light In the steps I keep It’s not goodbye Just a little while (I’ll find you there) In the end of miles [Verse 3] No, goodbye isn’t carved In the stone or the rain Nothing cherished is lost It just changes its name You’ve gone a few miles ahead Down a road full of gold Where the shadow can’t stay And the cold can’t hold [Verse 4] So I carry your warmth In the vows that I make In the bread on the plate In the first dawn we wake And if love doesn’t vanish When breathing is done Then I’ll keep that spark burning Like a small faithful sun [Chorus] It’s not goodbye It’s until we meet I hold your light In the steps I keep It’s not goodbye Just a little while (I’ll find you there) In the end of miles
