If Tomorrow Never Comes
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
or
two
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 right.
There will always be another day to say our "I love you's," and
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, 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
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.
Send this to all that you consider a friend. Those who you've known for
a
long time, maybe haven't talked to for a while, and those you have just
met.
Just to let them know how much you care about them. You never know, you
may
not see them tomorrow. So let them know how much they mean to you.
