See You Soon

By Sammy Ginsberg

I never thought I’d listen to Helena Beat
as I drove away from my best friend’s house
the night we said ‘see you soon’

just a song she showed me,
just a song, a finals lucky charm
just a song she showed me,
just a song our ears experienced live

I never knew this would be that song,
the tune that captured a moment,
brought back the tears,
the night we said good bye to the people we are now,
got on a plane, lived a different life
away from each other,
only focusing on the ‘see you soon’
