| 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 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 could spare an 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 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,
Tell them how much you love them
and that 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.
In remeberance of Jodi Sommer my best friend and Josh White who passed away 6 years ago yesterday in a car accident.
