Four Years

Four years since the last kick

That sent a nation ecstatic

Sent many home dejected

Four years since the last kick

Many dreams have faded

Four years since the last kick 

Thirty two countries hope anew

Four years since the last kick

It’s all on the line again

Four years since the last kick

The whole world watches and waits

Four years since the last kick

The slate is clean as it starts again

Four years since the last kick

The whistle blows for the first kick.
