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'd see you walk out the door
I would give you a hug and kiss
and then call you back for one more
*
If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd ever hear your voice
I would tape each and every word
so I could play them back someday
*
If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day
I would walk along beside you
and not let this one slip away
*
But surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight
Dont we always get a second chance
to make everything right?
*
Won't there always be another day
to say our "I love you's"
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...
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..
You were too busy to grant someone
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,"
say "forgive me," and " I thank you".
And if tomorrow never comes
you'll have no regrets today!!
