SHAY....
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,
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 just right.

There will always be another day
to say "I love you",
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "anything I can do?"

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 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,
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 OK"
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

SHAY,

I HAVE MEMORIES IN MY POCKET. THEY RATTLE AMONG THE CHANGE. MY MEMORIES OF YOU ARE TREASURES I CARRY WHEREVER I GO. THEY ARE STORED IN BITS AND PIECES, PARTS OF A BEAUTIFUL WHOLE, THEY GIVE ME COMFORT WHEN I THINK I'M ALONE. YES, I HAVE MEMORIES IN MY POCKET, LIKE SO MUCH OTHER STUFF I KEEP THERE. BUT OF ALL THE TREASURES I HAVE, IT'S THE MEMORIES IF YOU I CHERISHED THE MOST..YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A PART OF ME!!
