>>* "Always Say I Love You"
>>
>>* Brittany loved basketball
>>* Friends and parties too
>>* And when it came to painting
>>* That's all she wanted to do
>>* She painted everything she saw
>>* Birds, flowers, the sky
>>* Some days she sat at her window
>>* And painted everything that passed her by
>>* But lately she'd been feeling woozy
>>* Her muscles ached a lot
>>* And her parents got kind of worried
>>* So they took her to the doc
>>* The doctor took a couple of tests
>>* To see if everything was okay
>>* Then the nurse came out with a look of sadness
>>* And this is what she had to say;
>>* "I'm sorry but you've got leukemia,"
>>* "You've got about 3 months more."
>>* Then Brittany got up and ran out of the room
>>* And slammed the office door
>>* She ran down the street screaming
>>* And cried her eyes out dry
>>* And stayed up all night
>>* Wondering what it's like to die
>>* Her parents held her tightly
>>* And said, "We love you,"
>>* "We'll make your last few months the greatest,"
>>* "We'll do anything for you."
>>* So Brittany and her parents moved to Florida
>>* To live by the sea
>>* Because Brittany loved the ocean
>>* And when she dies, that's where she wanted to be
>>* She spent her days painting
>>* And horseback riding in by the bay
>>* But one day she met this guy
>>* And his name was Jay
>>* They collected seashells together
>>* And talked about all kinds of things
>>* And then one day while walking
>>* He handed her a ring
>>* It said, "I love you,"
>>* Which brought tears to Brittany's eyes
>>* And when he put it on her finger
>>* She began to cry
>>* "I've got leukemia, and about a month more."
>>* He said," No matter what, I love you,"
>>* "And no matter what, you are the one I adore."
>>* So they spent everyday together
>>* And swam in the Atlantic all day
>>* But Brittany was getting weaker
>>* And it was hard for her stay awake
>>* So one day Brittany painted her picture
>>* And gave it to Jay
>>* She said, "I want you to remember me,"
>>* "Even when I leave this place."
>>* But one day while they were walking
>>* And searching for seashells in the sand
>>* Brittany collapsed and started to lose her breath
>>* And said to Jay, "Please hold my hand."
>>* "I love you more than anyone,"
>>* "You are my only true love,"
>>* "But now my time is up,"
>>* "And I'll watch over you from above,"
>>* Then Brittany's body was lifeless
>>* As she lay in Jay's arms
>>* And he sat there all day
>>* And kept her safe from harm
>>* I hope this teaches you a lesson.
>>* To tell someone you love them whenever you >>>can.
>>* Because maybe they'll be gone tomorrow.
>>* And you won't be there to hold their hand.
>>* Because love is everything to everybody.
>>* Without it, the world would be dead.
>>* So always tell someone you love them.
>>* A parent, a lover, a friend.
>>* Send this to everyone you know, it makes a big difference even though
>>* You don't think so...
>>* Everyone deserves an "I love you."
>>* Because there may be
>>* No one for that person to say it back to.
>>* If you don't, the same shall happen to you.
>>* You might not have the same disease,
>>* But you will be dying of early age.
>>* Send this to 6 people or more.
>>* If you get it back they love you too.
>>* This is a true story.
