If I knew it would be the last time
that 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
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and a 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'd could spare any extra minute,
to stop and say" I 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 just right..
There will always be another day to say
"I love you", and certainly there's another chance
to say our "anything I can do"?
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 a like
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
so. hold your loved ones close today
and whisper in their ear,
tell them how much you loved them
and that you'll always hold them dear..
Take 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!
