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.
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,
and whisper
in their ear,
that you love
them very much and
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.
