If I knew it would
be the last time
that
I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck
you in tighter
and pray the Lord,
your soul to keep.
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 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 let just
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 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.
