I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck
you in more tightly and pray the Lord
your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd see you walk out the door,
I would hug you and kiss you and call
you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I heard your name lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play it back for days.
If I knew it would be the last time
to spare an extra minute or two,
I'd stop and say "I Love You",
instead of assuming you 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 many more,
So, i'll let this one slip away.
For surely there is tomorrow to make up
for an oversight, and we'll always get a
second chance to make everything all right.
There will be another chance 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 may be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and hope we never forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike, and today
might be your last chance
to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
You will surely regret the day,
that you didn't take the extra time
for a smile or hug or kiss.
And your surely too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be there last wish.
So hug your loved ones close today
and whisper in their ear.
Tell them how much you love them
and that you will always hold them dear.
Take the time to say "I'm sorry, please
forgive me, thank you or it's ok,"
and if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.
Apologize and start anew and tell the
one who loves you ,
That you love them too!
