"Till the End of Time" is a
popular song written
by lyricist Buddy Kaye

Ted Mossman and published in
1945. The melody is based on
Frédéric Chopin's

héroique". A number of recordings of the song were made in 1945. The biggest hit was by Perry Como; another version by Dick Haymes also charted; the Les Brown orchestra, with vocalist Doris Day, and Ginny Simms also made a recording of the song. It featured prominently in the 1946 film of the same name. The Perry Como recording was recorded on July 3, 1945, and released by RCA Victor Records as catalog number 20-1709.
