“If I knew I was going to die tomorrow,
And Spring came the day after tomorrow,
I would die peacefully, because it came the day after tomorrow.
If that’s its time, when else should it come?

And I like that it would be like this even if I didn’t like it.
And so, if I die now, I die peacefully
Because everything is real and everything is right.”

I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.If I knew it wouldbe 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 wouldbe 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 afterday.If I knew it wouldbe the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming, you would KNOW Ido.If I knew it wouldbe 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'salways tomorrow to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance to make everything right.There will alwaysbe another day to say our "I love you's",
And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I cando's?"But just in case Imight 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'rewaiting 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, whisper intheir 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.”
