| I�ve known a lot of neighbor�s And some of them all my life. From my early childhood on, Some happy husbands and wives. But there are some that I have loved, And left before I could say good-bye. There are some we care for oh so much. So remember right or wrong. Tell someone �I love you� before they're gone. You know life�s too short for the average man, Some just have too much pride. But to never say you love someone, And hold it deep inside� How can someone know you love them? If it�s your feelings that you hide? Step up to the plate and swing the bat, And learn to face the tide. There are some we care for oh so much. So remember right or wrong, Tell someone you love them before they're gone. Now in school I had this friend, And he felt so alone. And on that day, when he left Down the lonely road� Who could have known the fatal crash, Before he made it home. On the day they buried him, Wishing he was still alive, Nearly half the school was there, The principal and his wife. And then I saw how so many cared, That sad and gloomy day. But I never will forget the words, That I was trying to say. There are some we care for oh so much. So I urge you in this song. Tell someone �I love you� Tell someone �I love you� Tell someone �I love you� Before they're���gone. |
