If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep,"IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES"
If
I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.
If
I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them
back
day after day.
If
I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two,
to stop and say "I love you", instead of assuming, you would KNOW
I do.
If
I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can just let this one slip
away.
For
surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight,
and
we always get a second chance to make everything right.
There
will always be another day to say our "I love you's",
And
certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But
just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get,
I'd
like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget,
Tomorrow
is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,
And
today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So
if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?
For
if
tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day that you
didn't
take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were
too
busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.
So
hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear,
Tell
them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear.
Take
time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank
you" or "it's okay".
And
if
tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
