Always Say I Love You
  
  Brittney loved basketball
  Friends and parties too
  And when it came to painting
  That's all she wanted to do
  
  She painted everything she saw
  Brids, flowers, the sky
  Somedays 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 ok
  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 Brittney 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 Brittney and her parents moved to Florida
  To live by the sea
  Because Brittney 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 that, "I love you,"
  Which brought tears to Brittney's eyes
  And when he put it on her finger
  She began to cry
  
  "I've got leukemia, and about a month more."
  Then Jay 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 Brittney was getting weaker
  And it was hard for her stay awake
  
  So one day Brittney 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
  Brittney collapsed and started to lose her breath
  And said to Jay, "Please hold my hand."
   
  "I love you more then anyone,"
  "You are my only true love,"
  "But now my time is up,"
  "And I'll watch over you from above,"
  
  Then Brittney'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 wont 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
