If Tomorrow Never Comes
If I knew it would be the last time thatI'd see you fall asleep,I would tuck you in more tightlyand pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last timethat I see you walk out the door,I would give you a hug and kissand call you back for more.
If I knew it would be the last timeI'd hear your voice lifted up in praise.I would video tape each action and word,so that I could replay it back day by day.
If I knew it would be the last time,I would spare an extra minute or twoto stop and say "I love you",instead of assuming, that you know I do.
If I knew it would be the last time,I would be there to share your day,but I'm sure you'll have so many more,so I can just let this one slip away.
For surely there's a tomorrowto make up for an oversight,and we always get a second chanceto make everything right.
There will always be another dayto say our "I love you's"and certainly there's another chanceto 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 hope you never forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,young and old alike,and today may be the last chance you getto hold your loved ones 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 timefor a smile, a hug, a kissand you were too busy to grant someone,what turned out to be their last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today,whisper in their ear,tell them how much you love themand that you'll always hold them dear.
Take the 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.
